Made some of these last night and they were fantastic! Like the previous reviewer, I will be making a few changes the next time I make these.
I will also cut back on the salt in the potato mixture, and I also ended up with waaaaay too much potato for the amount of dough I made.
I used red onion, fresh cilantro and a green chili and minced it in the food processor. It made the potatoes a beautiful purple/green color!
I can’t wait to make these again–with a few changes, they’re going to be awesome!

This lovely bread looked so good I just had to make it tonight. My husband is traveling so I figured I would give it a go for just the kid and I as a “practice round”. Glad I did! It was a bit of trouble to figure out how it worked. This is a recipe that really could have benefited from step by step photos a la Ree!
OK, so first I couldn’t find chilis so I decided I would have to go without. I am sorry for it, while it tasted fine the chili would have added a lot of flavor. Also the recipe calls for 2 tablespoons of salt in the potato mixture – I think I’d cut that in about half it was way too salty for my taste.
Second, I ended up with about twice as much potato as I did dough. Perhaps I was not rolling mine thin enough, but using approximately 2 tablespoons of dough to 3 tablespoons of potato mixture didn’t seem to work out correctly for me. Next time I will double the dough.
As for tips, I will say it was easier than it sounds. The dough held together well and was easy to work with. I found that, after I folded the dough around the potato mixture and sealed it, it helped if I turned the ball over (seam side down) before rolling it out. Also, the bread puffed a little once it was in the pan, which helped me judge when to flip it.
At any rate, do give these a go! They were fun and surprisingly easy. And, of course, very tasty although as I said I may opt to look for some tweaks just to make it that much better, since I can’t get all the ingredients in my local markets.
Well done and thanks for sharing!

@aainbrazil…thank you for your excellent review. I never tried freezing these (i hardly ever have any left overs with these) but it is good to know we have that option now.

Just thought I would comment that after making these I had one left, so I froze it to see if it could be doubled and saved for later. I’m happy to report that it froze and reheated in the oven just fine. Not quite as crispy as fresh made but good enough!

Wow! Looks great. I will be venturing to make it soon … it will be a first for me but I’m up for it.

This sounds delicious! I’d have to leave the chilies out, as I’m allergic, but I think it would still be good!
