- Serve the Stunggis with a dollop of sour cream or a sprinkle of fresh herbs for added freshness.
Serving advice
Serve the Stunggis hot, straight from the oven, as the cheese will be gooey and the potatoes tender. Pair it with a crisp green salad or steamed vegetables for a complete meal.
Presentation advice
To enhance the presentation, sprinkle some fresh herbs, such as parsley or chives, on top of the Stunggis before serving. This adds a pop of color and freshness to the dish.
