Cook potatoes in water until tender.
Drain and mash thoroughly into a mixing bowl. You can use a ricer or hand mixer.
Mix in the butter until melted through.
Cool thoroughly in the fridge for at least four hours.
Knead in the flour, milk, sugar and salt until you have a thick dough.
Now pinch off pieces of the dough, about the size of golf balls.
On a lightly floured surface, swiftly roll out each ball to 1/8” thick disk. Avoid handling dough as much as possible.
Flip briskly and carefully into a dry, hot frying pan or griddle.
Do not try to manipulate the disk once in the pan as that will create holes.
Cook for about 30 seconds each side.
Keep them wrapped in a damp towel whilst you finish the batch, and afterwards.
Serve with butter or powdered sugar and jam.
Please note that where the recipe asks for milk, butter or yogurt, this refers to any plant-based version that you prefer.
