Lefse is a traditional soft Norwegian flatbread made out of potatoes and cooked on a griddle. I like it with butter and cinnamon-sugar, or use it to roll up lutefisk and mashed potatoes in. My grandfather emigrated here from Norway when he was small, and I am enamored with all things Norwegian! Ingredients:
3 -4 potatoes |
3/4 cup milk |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
4 cups flour, plus extra |
flour, for kneading (i like to put about a cup or so in a small bowl for easy-shmeezy use) |
Directions:
1. peel, wash, and dry the potatoes.
2. grate them using a hand grater or a food processor.
3. add the milk, salt, flour and mix well.
4. cover with a damp towel and let sit overnight.
5. the next day: on a flour covered board, roll out dough very thin.
6. Cut it into 6 round circles.
7. transfer to heated non-stick griddle or skillet one at a time and lightly cook on each side until it gets little brown spots.
8. wrap in warm towel until ready to serve.
