Swedes love naming dishes after people – maybe it’s a good way to keep track of who liked what dish. This dish is (some claim) named after the district council judge Marcus Wallenberg (1864–1943). Someone in Bronte’s household misunderstood the name, so in their family, these are now known as ‘Wallanders’, after the fictional detective stories by Henning Mankell.
This dish is traditionally served with mash and a creamy gravy. However, owing to the sheer amount of cream in the meat, our Bronte likes to serve these with simple buttered, boiled new potatoes, cold stirred lingonberries and fresh green peas. Hasselback Potatoes are another good serving option if you prefer something heavier. If you do want a gravy, simply use the frying juices. If you can’t get hold of frozen lingonberries, use lingonberry jam (also available in that place that sells bookcases)
In Denmark there is a dish that is a bit similar - look up Krebinetter/Karbonader.
