Frequently Asked Questions About Potato lompe
What is potato lompe made of?
Potato lompe is a soft Norwegian flatbread made mainly from cooked potatoes, flour and salt. The dough is rolled thin and cooked on a hot, usually ungreased surface; mashed potato gives it a tender, flexible texture.
How do you make potato lompe from scratch?
To make potato lompe, mash cooked potatoes and mix them with flour and salt until you have a soft dough. Roll it into thin rounds and cook them on a hot pan. Add flour gradually, since too much can make the flatbreads tough.
How do Norwegians eat potato lompe?
Potato lompe is commonly wrapped around a cooked sausage in Norway, often with mustard or ketchup. It also works as a soft wrap for savory fillings, or as a snack with butter and sweet toppings such as cinnamon.
Is potato lompe the same as lefse?
No, potato lompe and lefse are related Norwegian flatbreads, but the names are not interchangeable. Lompe is typically a simple potato-and-flour wrap, while lefse covers a wider range of regional recipes, including sweeter versions served with butter and sugar.
Can potato lompe be used instead of a hot dog bun?
Yes, potato lompe is often used instead of a hot dog bun in Norway. Its soft, flexible texture wraps around the sausage rather than holding it like a sliced roll; warm it briefly first so it bends without cracking.
Can you freeze potato lompe?
Yes, potato lompe freezes well. Let the flatbreads cool completely, separate them with baking paper, and seal them in a freezer-safe container. Thaw them in the refrigerator and warm briefly in a pan before serving.
How should you store potato lompe?
Store potato lompe in an airtight container in the refrigerator once it has cooled. Put baking paper between pieces to keep them from sticking together, and discard any that develop mold, an off smell or a changed texture.
Why does potato lompe dough crack or stick?
Potato lompe dough cracks when it is too dry and sticks when it is too wet. Drain the cooked potatoes well and add flour gradually until the dough is soft but manageable; roll it gently on a lightly floured surface.
What fillings go well with potato lompe besides sausage?
Potato lompe pairs well with cheese, egg or vegetables as well as sausage. For a sweet Norwegian-style snack, spread it with butter and add cinnamon or sugar; keep wet fillings modest so the soft flatbread does not tear.
How do you reheat potato lompe without drying it out?
Warm potato lompe briefly in a dry pan over medium-low heat, turning it as needed. Avoid prolonged heating, which can dry it and make it brittle; take it off the pan as soon as it is warm and flexible.

What is Potato lompe?
Potato lompe is a traditional Norwegian flatbread made from cooked, mashed potatoes mixed with flour and salt. The dough is rolled thin and cooked on a hot surface, yielding a soft, pliable bread with a gentle potato flavour. It is a familiar part of everyday Norwegian cooking rather than a filled pastry.
In Norway, lompe is often wrapped around a sausage or served with cured meats; smoked fish and simple toppings also work well. Elsewhere, use it as a wrap for vegetables, cheese or leftovers, warming it briefly so it folds without tearing. It is low in fat and mostly supplies carbohydrates, so add a protein-rich filling and plenty of vegetables for a more balanced meal.
