Preparation method
Prepare a pot with enough water for the potatoes. Peel the potatoes, cut them into small cubes, place them in the pot, and bring to a boil. Meanwhile, peel the onions and cut them into thin slices. Once the water boils, salt it, reduce the heat to medium, and cook the potatoes with the lid closed for approx. 9–10 minutes. Then add the cod fillets and let everything simmer for another 5 minutes over medium heat.
While the potatoes and fish are cooking, heat a large pan and let 1 tbsp of oil get hot in it. Add the butter and onion slices and sauté until translucent for approx. 4–5 minutes. Then stir in the cooking cream, dried thyme, dill, ground caraway, as well as salt and pepper. Let the sauce simmer for 3–4 minutes over medium heat, then remove the pan from the stove.
Preheat the oven to 200 °C (top/bottom heat) and prepare a baking dish. Drain the potatoes and fish, add them to the sauce in the pan, and roughly mash everything with a fork to create a chunky mixture. Fill the mixture into the baking dish, sprinkle evenly with the grated Edam cheese, and bake in the preheated oven for approx. 20–25 minutes until golden brown.
