Laxpudding - Swedish salmon gratin step by step

1. Cook the potatoes briefly, 10-15 minutes, in salted water.
2. Peel (optional) the potatoes, cut them in 2 cm slices..
3. Put half the potatoes in an oven dish, cover with slices of salmon..
4. Sprinkle with the finely chopped onion and some chopped dill..
5. Cover with the rest of the potatoes..
6. Whisk together the egg and cream, season with salt and pepper and pour evenly over the potatoes. In the right size dish the potatoes should fill the dish and the liquid should fill a little more than half (it will expand while cooking)..
7. Top the dish with some chopped dill and some slices of butter, evenly distributed..
8. Cook in the oven at 230C for 45 minutes or until the potatoes are golden brown and the egg mixture has completely set..
9. Traditionally, the dish it's served with some melted butter poured on top. Nice sides includes salad, green peas, and Swedish pickles. Some people (me included) serve with lingonberry jam (you'll find it at IKEA!), but this is a point of contention....
10. Another controversy is whether to use smoked or marinated salmon. Personally I have no preference, both are nice! But smoked salmon is easier to find outside Sweden (except maybe at IKEA)..
11. A light lager type beer is almost mandatory! Traditionally it is served with some aquavit on the side!.
