Norwegian Potato And Rye Pancake Flatbreads Lefse
These famous norwegian potato pancakes are more like flatbreads; they are traditionally eaten with butter and cream as a dessert, or sprinkled with cinnamon sugar as an accompaniment to coffee. I think these would be wonderful eaten with fried bacon and mushrooms, for a delicious brunch and breakfast idea. The norwegians will also eat these with local goat's cheese, snofrisk, or with dried/smoked reindeer meat.
Steps
Put the mashed potatoes into a large bowl and add the flour , sugar and salt - mix well.
Add some water - bit by bit , kneading well so it makes a pliable dough.
Take little balls from the dough - the size of a small egg and roll them out thinly on a well floured surface.
Heat up a flat griddle , hotplate or skillet and cook the lefse with a little fat until the dough bubbles.
Turn them over and cook the other side.
When the lefse have been cooked - they should be smooth and soft.
Eat them as i have suggested in the introduction !.
For vegetarian make sure the fat is from a vegetable product such as vegetable oil not from an animal product such as lard.
