Ingredients
2/3
cup quick-cooking oats (oatmeal)
6
large potatoes, peeled and finely grated
1
medium onion, finely grated
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
Light vegetable oil for frying
Directions
1.
In a heatproof bowl, combine the oats with 1-1/3 cup boiling water. Stir and set aside while preparing the other ingredients. Combine the grated potato, carrot, and onion, and matzo meal in a mixing bowl. Stir in the oatmeal, then season with salt and pepper. Heat just enough oil to coat the bottom of a large, nonstick skillet or griddle. Drop enough potato batter to form 2 1/2â to 3âinch pancakes. Fry on both sides over medium-high heat until golden brown and crisp. Drain briefly on paper towels and place in a covered container to keep warm until serving. Serve warm with applesauce and salt and pepper, if desired.
