Method

1
Wash the potatoes and boil them in salted water until cooked through. Grease a springform pan (ø 24 cm). Place the potatoes evenly on the bottom of the pan. Gently flatten the potatoes using a fork, for example. Place parchment paper over the potatoes and use the bottom of a pot to smash the potatoes flat against the bottom and sides of the pan.
2
Pre-bake the pie crust in a 225-degree oven for about 15 minutes.
3
Reserve 6–8 slices of cold-smoked reindeer for decoration and finely chop the rest. Peel and finely chop the red onion.
4
Mix the cream cheese, grated cheese, cold-smoked reindeer, and red onion in a bowl. Season with salt and black pepper. Pour the mixture into the pan over the potatoes and smooth the surface.
5
Bake the pie in a 225-degree oven for 25–30 minutes, until set and the surface has a beautiful color. Allow the pie to cool to room temperature.
6
Whip the smetana with an electric mixer until fluffy. Garnish the pie with the microgreen mix, flat-leaf parsley, smetana, and the slices of cold-smoked reindeer.
