Ingredients

  • 250g Charlotte potato (or another waxy variety), quartered
  • 1 small red onion, finely chopped
  • 6 small gherkins, sliced
  • 1 tbsp red wine vinegar
  • 1 tsp wholegrain mustard
  • 3 tbsp virtually fat-free fromage frais
  • 4 Rollmops

Method

  1. Cook the potatoes in boiling salted water for about 10 mins until tender, then drain and leave to cool a little.

  2. Meanwhile, mix the onion, gherkins, vinegar, mustard and fromage frais together in a medium bowl. Add the potatoes, mix well, divide between two plates, then top with the fish. Great with a green salad on the side.

Really enjoyed the unusual Scandi flavours in this dish. Didn’t change a thing although I realised when I plonked my rollmops on top that they came packaged with some pickled onion and gherkin in the ‘rolls’. So next time I might adjust the quantities of onion and gherkin in the potato salad dressing down slightly to allow for that.

Lovely, classic combination with a modern twist. I've also made a variation with chopped green olives instead of gherkins and it was great too. My only problem is that it gets cold very quickly but I can't really heat up the herrings...

it was a lovely dish but there are a lot of strong flavours so be prepared to still be tasting it the next day!
