      Title: Stritzeis (Potato cakes)
 Categories: Potato, Breakfast
      Yield: 1 Servings
 
      2 c  Cold Mashed Potato
           Milk & Butter included in
           The Mashed potato
      1    Medium Onion Finely Chopped
      3 tb Plain Flour
      2 ts Dried parsley
           2 or 3 Eggs
 
  this is the iffy part, I add the eggs till the mixture is goopy
  enough. Finely mash the cold potatoes with a fork. Sprinkle the flour
  and dried parsley over the potatoes,add the onions, and mix into the
  potatoes. Salt and pepper the mixture well. Add the eggs, and mix
  till smooth with the fork. In a frying pan, heat solid vegetable Fat
  untill hot but not smoking.
  With a large serving spoon, drop the spoonful of the mixture into the
  fat. The fat should be just deep enough the mixture doesn't float.
  Flatten the mixture out slightly. Fry till golden brown. When you go
  to flip them, use a spatula underneath, and another one to flip it
  onto, and then slid it back into the fat. If you don't do this, they
  break very easily. Fry the other side till golden brown. Make sure
  they are done in the middle before removing them. The center should
  be set, and not runny.I usually fry about 6 at a time.
   We usually seve Ketchup with these. They are
  excellent served with pork chops or steak but we love them for
  Breakfast with Bacon, Sausage & Eggs
  I hope you enjoy these. We usually seve catsup with these. They are
  excellent served with pork chops or steak.
