Lefse
- Minutes to Prepare:
- Number of Servings: 30
Ingredients
5 lbs. Russet Potatoes (or 12 cups-riced)4 tsp. Salt1 Cup Butter1/4 Cup Sugar3 Cups Flour
1. Peel, wash, and halve potatoes. Place in boiling water for 40 minutes.
2. Drain water and mash potatoes, keeping them over heat to dry them out some.
3. Rice potatoes into a bowl with a potato ricer.
4. Stir in all other ingredients except flour and place in refrigerator to cool. (one reason why the recipe takes more time)
5. Once thoroughly cooled, add flour and form dough into 1/3 cup-sized patties.
6. With a rolling pin, flatten patties to 9-12 in. wide, using LOTS of flour so they do not tear or stick. Keep patties in the refrigerator until just before you roll them to reduce stickiness.
7. Using a lefse turner, carefully lift the lefse onto 500º Fahrenheit griddle. Flip once air bubbles are large and light brown spots appear, or 20 seconds.
8. Once the lefse is done on each side, remove and place between two clean plastic bags with towels over top. Leave lefse here to steam until cooled.
Enjoy!
