Guest guest Posted March 20, 2001 Report Share Posted March 20, 2001 * Hi all, well I decided to try a recipe tonight that I got off this list back in January posted by " B&B " from this group. I cut it down to 1 1/2 potatoes and 1/2 cup flour cause its just me and LJ here eating and this made 4 nice size flat breads which was enough for us cause we had it with homemade turkey salad. Anyway I am reposting it incase someone else wants to try it. We ate them as wraps with the turkey salad inside - it was different. Its not actually breadlike, it is more like a mashed potato that is flattened and crispy and rolls like a soft taco. whenever I make them again I think I will try it at breakfast time cause I think it would make better for an egg wrap with maybe turkey sausage inside. Anyway , thanks, B&B for you previous post on Long Island New York * Potato flat bread When I was a little girl in Hungary, in the days of World War II, food was often hard to come by. But if one had a couple of potatoes, and a bit of flour, one could enjoy delicious, potato flat bread. (Minus the butter, of course!) You can use them like ita bread, for a different taste treat. What You'll Need: ---------------- 3 medium sized, all purpose potatoes 1 cup flour (substitute gfcf flour) 1 teaspoon salt Some melted butter to brush on the finished cakes. (optional) Peel, cut up and boil the potatoes, like you would for mashed potatoes. When tender, but not yet mushy, drain them well. Transfer to a bowl. Now, begin crushing the potatoes, while at the same time adding the flour and the salt. Work them together well. When potato-flour mixture is mixed together, transfer dough unto your cutting board, or counter. Shape the dough into a long piece, resembling french bread. With a knife, slice the dough into one inch sections. Roll the slices of dough into round circle Meanwhile, heat a large, heavy, dry frying pan on top of the burner of your stove. Notice, I said DRY. No oil or fat is used in making the flat bread. When your pan is searing hot, put in a flat bread circle. Cook until dough blisters and begins to brow Turn. Finish cooking the other side. When all of them are done, brush with the melted butter. (Or not) Serve warm. Now, the fun part. You can put your favorite filling in the middle of the flat bread, fold over, and eat like pita bread. Grilled veggies, or chopped, fresh veggies make good fillings. And you don't even have to be poor to enjoy potato flat bread's simple goodness. by renie burghardt ________________________________________________________________ GET INTERNET ACCESS FROM JUNO!
