Rössypottu is a traditional Finnish dish which originates from the Oulu region[1] yet is very much unknown in the southern parts of the country. Essentially a very simple dish, it is a stew made using potatoes (pottu, peruna), some pork and the main ingredient, so-called "rössy" i.e. blodpalt made of blood, beer, rye flour and some spices. Locally this dish is often referred to as "the pride of Oulu".
