Miehteissa

Miehteissa is a traditional Finnish dish that has been a staple in Finnish cuisine for centuries. The dish is typically made with a base of potatoes, which are boiled and then mashed with butter, milk, and sometimes cream. The potatoes are then mixed with a variety of other ingredients, such as carrots, onions, and sometimes even mushrooms or peas, which are also boiled and then mashed or chopped. The dish is often seasoned with salt, pepper, and sometimes nutmeg or other spices. Miehteissa is typically served as a side dish, often paired with meat or fish. It is a hearty and comforting dish that is enjoyed throughout Finland and is often served during the colder months. The dish is also popular in other Nordic countries, where it is known by similar names such as "mjölkris" in Sweden and "mjølkeris" in Norway.
