Vegetarian Meals

Ingredients:

• 2/3 cup quick-cooking oats (oatmeal)
• 6 large potatoes, peeled and finely grated
• 1 medium carrot, grated
• 1 medium onion, finely grated
• 1/2 cup matzo meal
• salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
• light vegetable oil for frying
• applesauce

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 1/2– to 3–inch 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.
