LEFSE I



Lefse I image

A special Scandinavian treat. Beginner lefse makers might want to make only a third of the portion the first time through! Serve any number of ways. A favorite is with butter or margarine and sugar. Some people like cinnamon with this, too. Jellies make an excellent topping as do thinly sliced fried sandwich meat.

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 cups boiling water
½ cup butter flavored shortening
1 cup evaporated milk
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons white sugar
3 cups dry potato flakes
3 cups all-purpose flour
¾ cup all-purpose flour

Steps:

  • In a large bowl mix together the boiling water, shortening, milk, salt, sugar, and potato flakes. Place in the refrigerator until thoroughly chilled.
  • After dough is thoroughly chilled, add the flour, using a pastry blender to cut in.
  • Divide dough into 3 equal size portions. Form into 3 logs. Chill thoroughly in the refrigerator.
  • Heat an electric griddle to 375 degree F (190 degrees C).
  • Divide logs into 8 pieces. Roll to about the size of a 10 inch tortilla. Work additional flour into rounds as needed. Use care to press lightly with rolling pin when forming into rounds as they are much more tender than pie dough. The weight of a large rolling pin is nearly enough.
  • Bake on the griddle until each round feels dry but not crisp. Turn frequently.
  • Cool on cloth. Cover with an additional cloth. Stack pieces on top of each other as they are baked. The steam will create a more tender product.

INSTANT POTATO NORWEGIAN LEFSE



Instant Potato Norwegian Lefse image

This is a traditional Norwegian dish that my Great Grandmother, Mina Taylor, would make that was handed down to us. As children, we always had lefse for our Christmas Morning breakfast. I found an easy way using instant potatoes and this makes the process a lot easier to make the lefse in the mornings! We would eat the cooked lefse by rolling the lefse in cooked bacon with cream cheese and it is so good that way! I am not including the refrigeration time, which could be anywhere from 2 hours to overnight, which is what I do when I make them for Christmas morning. You could also try using a gluten free flour to see if it would be used for a gluten free diet.

Time 30m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 cups potato flakes
4 tablespoons sugar
3 cups water
2 1/2 cups milk
1 1/2 cups butter
3 teaspoons salt
2 -3 cups flour (enough to make a rolling dough)

Steps:

  • In a large saucepan or pot, bring the water to boil and add the milk, butter, sugar, and salt. When the milk has come to a boil, add the potato flakes and stir until smooth. Pour the potatoes into a large bowl and refrigerate.
  • When ready to make the lefse, take out 2 cups of potatoes at a time and add 1 to 1 1/2 cups of flour and stir until it becomes a workable dough. Flour a counter surface and roll the dough out as thin as possible. Cut individual slices with the a round cookie cutter, or the top of a medium sized glass.
  • Add about 1 tsp oil to a skillet pan and cook the lefse for about 3-5 minutes, or when brown blisters start to form on the top. Flip and cook for another 3-5 minutes.
  • Continue to cook the individual slices until the potato dough is gone. You may be able to cook several lefse at a time if you have a large enough skillet, if not cook one at a time. Any leftover cooked lefse may be refrigerate and used for about 3-5 more days.

INSTANT POTATO LEFSE RECIPE - (4.1/5)



Instant Potato Lefse Recipe - (4.1/5) image

Provided by á-6994

Number Of Ingredients 7

6 cups water
1 cup (2 sticks) Butter
1 cup Half & Half
2 tbsp Sugar
2 tbsp Salt
9 cups Potato Buds
4 1/2 cups flour (or more as needed)

Steps:

  • Mix the above ingredients in two batches. It will make it easier to handle. In the evening prior, mix 4 1/2 c of Potato Buds in a mixing bowl with 1 tbsp sugar, and 1 tbsp salt. Set aside and in a saucepan, combine 1/2 c butter, 1/2 cup Half & Half, and 3 c water. Bring to a boil. Once the mix is boiling, add in the dry ingredients until well blended. Repeat with the second batch. When both batches are done, place them in a cake pan and pat down evenly. Place a paper towel over the potatoes and then cover with plastic or foil. The paper towel will protect the potatoes from moisture by absorbing condensation that may form in refrigeration. Next morning, divide the dough into 2 batches. Remove 1 batch and place in a mixing bowl. Place the remaining batch back into the refrigerator. Add 1 1/2 cups flour to mixture. Knead a few minutes, adding more flour as needed. Using an ice cream scoop, scoop into balls enough for 1 lefse. Keep balls stored in refrigerator in a bowl or on a cookie sheet. Take out a couple at a time. Heat the lefse griddle to 400 deg. Prepare the lefse board by working flour onto the pastry cloth on the board. If using a covered rolling pin, dust with flour. Begin rolling out the balls into thin flat round sheets. When rolled out, transfer to the lefse griddle. Note: Be careful not to over flour when rolling out the dough. Too much flour will cause the lefse to become tough, dry and crack around the edges when cooking.
