Potato Kleshins

Ingredients

  • 3/4 Cup Raw Potato, finely grated
  • 1 Egg
  • 4 Quarts Salted Boiling Water
  • 1/4 Teaspoon Salt
  • Vegetable Oil
  • 1 and 1/2 Cup Flour
  • 1 Onion, chopped
  • 4 to 6 Pork Chops, cut into big pieces
  • Butter

Instructions

Combine flour, potatoes, egg and salt. Mix well. Drop spoonfuls of potato mixture in the boiling water to make the Kleshins. When they rise to the top of the pot, remove and set aside. Reserve the potato water. Brown the pork chops and onions in a mixture of half butter and half oil, in a large skillet. Once browned, add potato water to cover. Bring to a boil. Add the Kleshins and simmer until heated through.
