  • Yield: 9 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.4 oz. (40g) fresh yeast
  • pinch of sugar
  • 2/3 cup (160ml) lukewarm water
  • 7 oz. (200g) cooked potatoes (from the day before)
  • 2 1/2 cups (320g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp. salt
  • 2 tbsp. olive oil

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 120˚F (50°C) and turn off again. Crumble the fresh yeast into a large bowl, add water and a pinch of sugar and mix until the yeast has dissolved. Set aside.
  2. Peel the cooked potatoes from the day before and grate finely. Add together with the flour, salt and olive oil to the bowl with the yeast and mix. Knead about 4-5 minutes until you get a smooth dough. Take out of the bowl and knead with your hands on a floured surface for a minute or so – the dough will be quite soft. Place in the bowl again, cover with a kitchen towel and place in the warm oven. Let rise for about 45-50 minutes.
  3. Take the bowl out of the oven and preheat the oven to 390˚F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with baking parchment and set aside. Place the dough on a floured surface and hit it several times to get some air out. Divide into 8-9 equal pices and form smooth balls. Place with enough space in between on the prepared baking sheet, cover with a kitchen towel and let rise again for 10-15 minutes.
  4. Cut the surface of the bread rolls if you like and place on the lowest rack of the oven and bake for 28-30 minutes. Take out of the oven and let cool down on a wire rack. Serve completely cooled or still a bit warm – up to you!
