Open pie with potatoes and herring roe
Description
The baking is simple and quick. Leftovers, as you know, aren't always sweet. Sometimes you have a bit of dinner or lunch left over, and that's always a perfect chance to make an interesting pie! For example, we often have leftover fish roe when serving herring with onion and butter for dinner. But a pie made with that roe disappears "in no time." And don't worry—there won't be any awful smell while baking. Serve it with tea or coffee.
