💡Variations
Potato and cheese flatbreads: mix 200 g crumbled feta or fresh cheese into the potato mash for a richer filling.
Oven-baked version: arrange flatbreads on a greased tin, brush with oil on top, and bake at 200°C for 20–25 minutes for a lighter result.
Potato and egg flatbreads: add 2 boiled chopped eggs to the filling for a more substantial variation.
