nuoliksi

Nuoliksi is a traditional Finnish dish that has been a staple in the country's cuisine for centuries. The name "nuoliksi" translates to "like an arrow" in English, referring to the elongated shape of the dish. It is typically made from a mixture of potatoes, carrots, and sometimes other root vegetables, which are boiled and then mashed together. The dish is often seasoned with salt, pepper, and sometimes butter or cream for added richness. Nuoliksi is a versatile side dish that pairs well with a variety of main courses, including meat, fish, and poultry.

Nuoliksi is typically served hot, either as a side dish or as a main course, and is often accompanied by a side of butter or sour cream.
