Lokše

Ingredients

2 lbs (900 g) potatoes, peeled and boiled until tender
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (more as needed)
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons melted butter (for brushing)
Sour cream (for serving, optional)
Sauerkraut (for serving, optional)
Duck or goose fat (optional, for richer flavor)

Instructions

Prepare the Potatoes

Drain the boiled potatoes and let them cool slightly.

Mash the potatoes until smooth or pass them through a potato ricer for a finer texture.

Make the Dough

In a large bowl, combine the mashed potatoes, all-purpose flour, and salt.

Mix until a soft dough forms. If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour, but be careful not to add too much as the dough should remain soft.

Shape the Lokše

Divide the dough into equal portions, about the size of a golf ball.

On a floured surface, roll out each portion into a thin round, about 1/8 inch thick.

Cook the Lokše

Heat a dry, non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat.

Cook each rolled-out dough round in the dry skillet for about 1-2 minutes on each side, or until golden brown spots appear and the lokše is cooked through.
