Potato Pancakes

Ingredients

•6 medium sized baking potatoes (about 2 1bs.) Peeled
•2 Eggs, beaten
•¼ Cup of finely grated onions
•1/3 Cup of Matzo meal
•1 Teaspoon of salt
•8 Teaspoons of Bacon fat
•Apple sauce
Cooking Instructions

Pre-heat oven to 250 degrees. Peel potatoes as you drop them into boiling pot to prevent discoloring. Combine eggs and onion. Gradually beat in Matzo meal and salt. Drain potatoes and pat dry. Grate them into a colander. Press them down firmly to squeeze out as much moisture as possible. Immediately stir into egg batter. In a large skillet melt bacon fat over high heat until it sputters. Pour 1/3 cup of the potato mixture and flatten into a pancake about 5”. Fry on medium heat for a bout 2 min on each side. When browned on both sides and crisps around the edges transfer to an oven proof plate and keep warm in the oven. Add more fat to the pan when necessary, keeping the depth about ¼ of an inch. Serve as soon as possible with applesauce.
