Scandinavian breakfast
Description
The dish is prepared without unnecessary complications. Ragmunkar (from the word "raggmunk," meaning "hairy monk") are somewhat similar to Belarusian draniki or Ukrainian deruny, only they are thinner and more delicate. The name likely comes from the fried bits of potato that create a sort of "unshaven" appearance. These plump little potato pancakes, traditionally served with bacon and lingonberry sauce, make for a very satisfying meal—perfect for a hearty breakfast! Preparing a Scandinavian breakfast at home is actually very easy. I'll explain how in this detailed step-by-step recipe. Be sure to give it a try. The finished dish is now ready to be served.
