Meerrettich Kartoffeln

(Potatoes in horseradish cream sauce)

Meerrettich kartoffeln is a traditional dish consisting of potatoes in horseradish cream sauce. The dish is usually made with a combination of potatoes, root horseradish, milk, butter, onions, flour, sugar, salt, and parsley. The horseradish is grated and soaked in milk.


The potatoes are boiled, peeled, and sliced. The onions are minced, sautéed in butter, sprinkled with flour, and stirred until the flour is absorbed. Water, milk, and grated horseradish are added to the pan in order to create a creamy sauce that's stirred until smooth and thick.


It's seasoned with salt and sugar, sprinkled with parsley, and the potatoes are then simmered in the sauce for a few minutes before the dish is served warm.
