Ingredients
- 3–4 eggs
- 1 kg (~2.25 lbs ) shrimp with shells on
- 4.5 dl (450 ml / 1 pint ) cottage cheese
- 4 dl (400 ml) mayonnaise
- 1 dl (100 ml) sour cream
- 2 loaves white sandwich bread
- Salt
- Black pepper
- Sprigs of dill or slices of lemon or lime for garnish
- Chopped dill or parsley for garnish
Directions
Boil the eggs until hard , and peel the shrimp.
Set aside some shrimp (about ⅓) for garnishing. Chop the remaining shrimp, which will be used for filling.
Mix 1 dl mayonnaise with 1 dl sour cream in a cup or bowl, place in the refrigerator.
Mix the remaining mayonnaise with the cottage cheese in another bowl together with the chopped shrimp; this is the filling .
Cut the bread lengthwise to make eight 1 cm thick slices. Discard the top and bottom slice.
Place two slices next to each other, preferably on a cutting board . Spread one third of the filling on top of the bread slices. Add two more bread slices on top. Spread half of the remaining filling and repeat for the final layer. The cake should now have four layers of bread with three layers of filling between them.
If necessary even out the edges of the cake with a sharp knife .
Take the mayonnaise/sour cream mix out of the refrigerator and spread it thinly and evenly on the sides of and on top of the cake.
Cover the sides of the cake with chopped parsley or dill. Garnish with shrimp, sliced eggs, and dill sprigs or lemon slices.
