1 cup potatoes,mashed
2/3 cup vegetable shortening

Gently mix the two flours together. Sift about 6 cups flour into mixture; stir until dough is stiff enough to knead. Turn out onto lightly floured surface; knead, gradually adding flour until dough doesnt stick to hands and is smooth and elastic.

Shape dough into ball; place in greased bowl; turning dough to bring greased surface to top. Cover with towel; let stand in warm, draft-free place until doubled.

Shape dough into rolls; place in greased muffin cups and let rise until double. Bake in preheated 400 degree oven 15 to 20 minutes; cool on racks. Brush tops with melted butter.
