1. Dissolve yeast in luke warm water (or milk/butter milk/other liquid).
2. Mix in enough flour to make a runny gruel. Let stand for ca. 15 minutes, until it starts bubbling.
3. Add spices and carrots.
4. Mix in the rest of the flour
5. Add melted butter/oil when the dough is almost done.
6. Let the dough rest for about 30 minutes, until it is ca. twice the original size.

8. Let the rolls rest 10 - 15 minutes

thanks! sorry but i don't understand some of the ingred:


1/2 l   water or milk (you can also use butter milk) -

4 dl   rye flour- what is dl?
ca. 10 dl graham and all purpose four (or substitute a part of it with oats)

4 dl   grated carrots

l are liters.
dl are deciliters, ie, tenths of a liter.
4 dl would be 4/10ths of a liter.  Or 0.4 liters.  Or 400 milliliters.  Which ever you prefer.   

1/2l is one half liter.

Bienchen, thankyou for anwering that 
I swear I thought about conversions when i started typing the recipe but then I got all caught up in the translation and the phone rang and the dog barked and and and

The measurements are in liters and deciliters - I'll try to make the conversions later and add them into the OP
