Cabbage Casserole

Cabbage Casserole (Kaalilaatikko) is another Finnish classic I want to introduce you to! It’s up there with my favourite Finnish foods, it’s such a hearty dish that highlights simple and cheap ingredients. This recipe is perfect for bigger families, but my two-person household has no trouble finishing it as it’s ever so delicious and you won’t get tired of eating it! Make sure to serve the cabbage casserole with lingonberry jam though, the flavour combination is a killer!

Spinach Oven Pancake

This Finnish style king-size Spinach Pancake is cooked in the oven! Overall it takes a bit longer to make than regular pancakes, but the hands-on time is minimal: you simply mix the batter, let it rest for a bit whilst you defrost the spinach, and pop in the oven for half an hour… voilà! The Spinach Oven Pancake makes a perfect snack, and it can be eaten both hot or cold. And thanks to spinach, it has loads of nutrients too – in fact, it’s pretty healthy!
