Preheat your oven to 180°C. Cook the potatoes
for about 15 minutes (depending on size)
in salted water. If they are new potatoes, you
can leave the skin on – if not, you are better off
peeling them. Butter an ovenproof baking pan
and place the cleaned mackerels in it. Cut the
cooked potatoes into slices and sprinkle them
over the fish. Do the same with the radishes.
Cut up the dill and chives and sprinkle on top of
the fish and vegetables together with salt and
pepper. Whip up the eggs and milk and pour it
over the ingredients so that they are covered.
Put it in the oven until the eggs are set.
Serve with good dark rye bread, a nice green
salad and dark beer (a porter will do the trick).
