Lefse

This time we have arrived to Norway and I have decide to prepare again something from potato. Flatbread from potato or Lefse. 
Lefse is eaten either plain, with butter, sugar and cinnamon, or smeared with sweet mustard and filled with pieces of pork belly.

Lefse is eaten a lot in Christmas time.

Recipe I found from here ( I have made some minor changes in recipe):
https://www.sofn.com/norwegian_culture/recipe_box/baked_goods_breads_and_desserts/potato_lefse/

Ingredients:
2 large baking potatoes suitable for mashed potatoes
100 g melted butter
100 g milk
0,5 tsp sugar
1 tsp salt
120 g of wheat flour (a little you also need for rolling)

Boil the potatoes without peeling and mash while still warm Mix should be even and without lumps. To get lumps out you could use sieve and put mashed potatoes throw the sieve.

Add remaining ingredients, half of wheat flour, mix well, cover and chill for 8 hours.

Add second half of flour and knead into dough. Divide dough into pieces with weight of 35 grams. Roll each ball out as thin as possible. Keep the dough, what you are not using in cold place. If you need add flour in rolling time then you could use it a little, but do add it too much.

Bake each Lefse in hot pan, turning until both sides are flecks with brown. Do not over bake.

Serve warm with butter, cinnamon and sugar. As a savory version serve Lefse with fried-smoked bacon and sweet mustard.

See you in Island 😊
