فطيرة البطاطا.. ننصحكم بتجريبها لأنها لذيذة بالفعل

Ingredients

Start here, then move straight into the method.

  • 4 medium potatoes
  • Salt to taste
  • 4 cups flour (or more as needed)
  • Butter for serving
  • For more savory pastries see: Chicken and Vegetable Pie

Method

Follow the cooking sequence without leaving the page.

  1. Boil the potatoes, then peel and mash them well using a potato masher.
  2. When the potatoes cool, sprinkle a little salt and mix, then begin adding the flour in batches until you obtain a cohesive, easy-to-handle dough.
  3. Dust the dough lightly with flour because it will remain sticky due to the potatoes, then sprinkle a little flour on a clean marble surface, place the dough and begin dividing it into medium, equal-sized balls.
  4. Flatten or roll each dough ball into circles, and remember to dust beneath each one with a little flour so they do not stick.
  5. Heat a skillet over medium heat and cook the dough, one at a time, browning both sides.
  6. Remove them from the skillet, brush with butter while hot, and serve.
