• Preheat oven to 400.
• In a buttered 2 1/2- 3 quart shallow baking dish (13x9 works well), layer 1/3 of the potatoes, 1/2 of the onions, 1/2 of the chopped anchovies, salt and pepper to taste, 1/3 potatoes, 1/2 onions, 1/2 of the chopped anchovies, salt and pepper to taste, last third of potatoes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Peel and cut the potatoes into fine julienne, don't put them in cold water. You will need the starch to thicken the dish. If they become red or gray simply rinse them off quickly and dry them off with a paper towel. Slice the onion into fine slices. Cut the ansjovis (matjes) into small pieces. Butter an oven proof pan and layer the potato, onion and the ansjovis. Begin and finish with the potato. Salt and pepper between the layers. Mix the milk, heavy cream and the marinade and poor it over the dish. Spread a thin layer of bread crumbs on the top and bake it for 50 to 60 minutes, or until the potatoes are nice and soft.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 200°C.
• Peel the potatoes and cut them into strips.
• Peel and cut the onions into thin slices, sautéing them gently in a little butter without browning.
• Grease an ovenproof baking dish and cover the bottom with a layer of potatoes, then add half the onions and half the anchovy filets. Another layer of potatoes, then the rest of the onion and sprats. Finish with a layer of potatoes.
• Flatten the surface, apply a few turns of pepper fresh from the mill and sprinkle on a little salt.
• Pour the cream on until it is almost visible through the potatoes. Place a few pats of butter on top and, if desired, sprinkle with some breadcrumbs. Bake in the oven for about an hour.
