Peel and grate the potatoes, then pour over 125 ml of hot water. In a second bowl, mix the flour, salt, and dried yeast. Mix the olive oil and sugar into the potatoes. Add the flour mixture and knead everything thoroughly. Transfer to a floured work surface and knead with your hands for 5 minutes until you have a smooth dough. Transfer the dough to a bowl, cover with a kitchen towel or lid, and leave in a warm place until it has doubled in size. Knead again and shape into a firm loaf. Score several times with the tip of a knife. Place on a baking sheet and bake in the lower third of the oven at 225 °C (200 °C fan oven) for 25 minutes. Reduce the heat and bake at 200 °C (180 °C fan oven) for another 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool.
