WE MADE THIS!

Recipe originally published 17/03/2016

We incorrectly called this ‘Räksmörgås’ for years, but have just discovered that an open prawn sandwich is called ‘Räkmacka’. Apologies, Sweden.

Our recipe came from taste testing a huge variety of these across Sweden. The quality of your sandwich all comes down to the quality of your ingredients – we will be making this again to update the photo with some much better prawns & bread.
