Instructions
- In a large bowl, mix potatoes, melted butter, egg, soda, salt, and ½ cup flour. Mix until soft and lump-free, and a dough forms, do not overwork. Keep adding more flour to dough until dough is firm and holds a shape and is not sticky to the touch - but not so much flour it crumbles apart. This will depend a lot on your potatoes, humidity in the air, etc - so you will have to add more flour and go based off feel instead of giving a precise measurement.
- Sprinkle a little flour out on a table and add dough to table. Work into large circle and shape into a disc. You will have enough for two to three discs - depending on how thick you'd like them. I like them thick so they are a bit like mashed potatoes in the middle still, but it's more traditional to make them thinner.
- Cut disc into four wedges.
- Heat a nonstick frying pan or well seasoned cast iron skillet on the stove over medium high heat.
- When the pan is hot, add dough wedges to pan.
- Let bread cook and brown on each side, about 5 minutes per side. Rotate bread and flip onto each side, so it is browned on all edges. I prefer a darker browning for a bit of crunch, but a light toasting is traditional - how browned you like your bread is up to you. Use a wooden spoon to help flip bread.
- When bread has browned on all sides, it is done.
- Serve hot with butter, sour cream, or jam, depending on if you made it savory or sweet.
