Biksemad

Biksemad is a traditional Danish dish. Its name, which translates to "chopped food," accurately describes its preparation. It is typically made from diced leftovers, most commonly roasted meat, potatoes, and onions. These ingredients are fried together, often in a pan, until they are well combined and slightly crispy. A fried egg is a classic accompaniment, usually served placed on top of the biksemad. Pickled beets and Worcestershire sauce are also common additions or accompaniments. The dish is often considered a hearty and economical meal, making good use of ingredients that might otherwise be discarded. Variations exist, with different types of meat or vegetables sometimes incorporated depending on availability and preference. It is a popular dish in Danish homes and is also found on the menus of many Danish restaurants.
