  • Cooking: 25 min
  • Makes: 1 serving (199 g)
  • Difficulty: Easy
  • Diets: Vegetarian
  • Contains: dairy, gluten

Ingredients

  • 100 g Potatoes, floury (russet), raw
  • 30 g Sour cream
  • 15 g Onion
  • 3 g Chives, fresh
  • 0.3 g Caraway seeds
  • 0.5 g Salt
  • 0.1 g Black pepper
  • 50 g Rye bread

Method

  1. Boil the potatoes in their skins for 20-25 minutes until a knife slides in easily. Drain, peel them while still warm and press them through a potato ricer, or mash them very finely with a fork.
  2. Spread the potato out on a plate and leave it to cool for 30 minutes; the spread is made with cold potato.
  3. Chop the onion as finely as you can, chop the chives and lightly crush the caraway seeds.
  4. Stir the sour cream, onion, caraway, salt and pepper into the potato until smooth and creamy, then stir in most of the chives. Add a spoonful more sour cream if it is too stiff to spread.
  5. Taste and add a little more pepper if needed.
  6. Spread thickly on slices of rye bread and scatter over the rest of the chives.
