PYTT I PANNA

Pyttipanna, also pytt i panna, pyttipanne (Norwegian), pyttipannu (Finnish), is a hodgepodge of food similar to bubble and squeak. The term is Swedish/Norwegian for "small pieces in pan". The dish was originally made from leftovers of past meals but is now far more common prepared from prime ingredients. Frozen pyttipanna of many varieties can be bought in almost every Swedish, Norwegian or Finnish supermarket. Pyttipanna is often abbreviated to pytt and occasionally called 'hänt i veckan' ('happened this past week') reflecting its origin as a dish made with leftovers.
