Swedish Wiener Dish (Svensk Pølseret)

This is actually a recipe from Denmark, despite the title, and is probably the Danish equivalent of beanie wienies. This is comfort food adored by children, and very easy for moms to make, especially with leftover potatoes. Preparation time assumes the potatoes are already cooked.
