Take a heat-resistent dish and put in a layer of potatos. Then a layer of herrings. Start with potatos and end with potatos. Put pepper on every layer. Put in the cream till appr. 1 inch from the top. Put on the breadcrumbs and spread little lumps of butter on top.
Put in a warm - 200 celsius - oven for about 40 minutes until the top is brown.
Serve with icecold Aquavit. That's a very strong Danish liquor.
