Potatonik
- 6 large potatoes (washed and peeled)
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup matzo meal
- 4 eggs (separated)
- 2 tablespoons oil
- Heat oven to 350 degrees F and heat 1 Tbs oil in a pan (9" square or equivalent) in the oven while you are preparing the batter.
- Grate potatoes.
- Mix the salt, 1 Tbs oil and matzo meal and add to the potatoes.
- Add the beaten egg yolks and mix well.
- Then add the egg whites which have been well beaten (but not to"peak stage".) Mix everything well.
- Remove the pan from the oven VERY carefully (the oil will be HOT) and pour the batter in gently.
- Bake about 45 minutes, until a tester (toothpick) indicates it is set.
- Cut in wedges.
- It is equally delicious served warm or, equally wonderful, served cold if any is left over.
- Calorie conscious tip: I rinse the grated potatoes through a colander with tap water to get rid of excess starch.
- Be sure to drain well.
