- Preparation: 30 min
- Cooking: 40 min
- Makes: 1 serving (166 g)
- Difficulty: Medium
- Diets: Vegetarian
- Contains: dairy, gluten
Ingredients
- 80 g Potatoes, raw
- 6 g Butter, unsalted
- 25 g Lingonberries, raw or frozen
- 5 g Sugar
- 0.3 g Salt
- 30 g Flour, rye
- 20 g Water, cold
Method
- Boil the peeled potatoes for 15-20 minutes until soft, drain and mash them smooth with half the butter.
- Crush the lingonberries lightly with the sugar and stir them into the mash with a pinch of the salt.
- Heat the oven to 275°C. Mix the rye flour, water and the rest of the salt into a firm dough, adding a little more flour if it sticks.
- Divide the dough in two and roll each piece out on a rye-floured surface into a thin round about 12 cm across.
- Spread a heaped spoonful of filling over the middle of each round, then fold up and pinch the edge all round to make small open pies.
- Bake on a tray lined with baking paper for 15-20 minutes, until the crust is crisp and the filling lightly browned in places.
- Brush with the rest of the butter, melted, as soon as they come out, and cover with a cloth for a few minutes to soften the crust. Eat warm or cold.
