1

Wash and peel the potatoes.

2

Cover the potatoes with water in a saucepan and bring to a boil on medium-high heat.

3

Add salt to the boiling water and reduce heat to medium, simmering the potatoes until tender, about 10 to 15 minutes.

4

Check the potatoes for tenderness by poking with a fork; if not tender, continue boiling for another 5 minutes.

5

Drain the water from the potatoes and let them cool for a bit.

6

Prepare the garnishes by rinsing off the produce.

7

Start assembling the smørrebrød by spreading cheese or butter on the bottom of the rye bread.

8

Layer radishes, parsley, and fried onions on top of the cheese or butter spread.

9

Repeat the assembly with the second type of rye bread, using mayonnaise instead of cheese or butter if desired.

10

Serve the assembled smørrebrød and enjoy.
