Seems to be the same thing, except you don't always make it
from real leftovers, and if it's supposed to be fancy the
ingredients are supposed to be cut into really small pieces
-- you can even buy it cut, mixed and frozen so that you
only need to heat it up! I suppose you too eat it with
fried eggs?

I stand corrected. BTW something IMO not really tasty called
lapskojs exists in northern Sweden too. Not very much like
the Norwegian thing.

BTW a puddle of water can be _vattenpuss_ in Swedish. Not
part of my active vocabulary though.
