Instructions

  1. Mix the rye flour, lukewarm water and salt into a soft dough, then leave it to rest for 15 minutes.
  2. Mash the cooked potatoes with the softened butter and sugar until smooth.
  3. Roll the dough out very thinly on a floured surface into a disc about 25 cm across.
  4. Spread the mash over half of the dough, then fold the other half over to enclose the filling.
  5. Gently flatten and cook in a dry pan over medium heat for 4 to 5 minutes per side, until the dough is golden.
  6. Brush with melted butter as it comes off the heat and serve warm.
