- Don't worry about perfectly shaped buns; the rustic method still yields delicious results. - These buns are surprisingly filling; limit consumption to 3 buns per meal as a nutritional tip. - Potatoes are high in carbohydrates, so this dish will have a high glycemic index.
  1. Boil the 3 potatoes whole, with the skins on, in slightly salty water until soft (easily penetrated with a fork).

  5. Use a silicone spatula to mix all the ingredients thoroughly.
  6. Allow the mixture to rest and firm up for 20 minutes.
  7. Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
  8. Prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  9. If the dough is too soft to form balls, simply drop 10 mounds or lumps of dough onto the parchment paper.
  10. In a small bowl, beat the reserved egg yolk.
