Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
4 russet potatoes -- cut in pc.
1 sm onion -- chopped coarsely
1 tsp coarse salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/4 cup matzo meal -- or more
1 egg -- beaten OR
1/4 cup egg substitute
In a food processor, puree the onion with the egg and a little salt. Add the potatoes, cut in chunks, and the matzo meal.
Pulse a few times and then puree it a little (another 15 seconds or so). If some of the chunks remain at the top, mush them around and get them under the pureed potato mixture.
When all is pureed but with a little texture left, add the mushrooms. Pulse a couple of times to chop up the mushrooms. Add the salt and pepper. Pulse one more time to combine.
Heat a corningware 1 qt casserole with some oil in it. Add the otato-mushroom mixture to the oil and cook for a few monents until the oil comes up and around the top of the mixture.
When it does this, put it in a 350°F oven for 45 minutes uncovered.
When it is done, it should be firm to the touch. Place a toothpick in the center, if it comes out clean, it is done (just like a cake).
