6 lbs. potatoes, cooked and mashed
6 eggs, beaten
1½ cups potato starch
6 lg. onions, sliced and sauteed
1/2 lb. margarine or oil to saute the onions in
2 tbsp. salt
3/4 tsp. black pepper
beaten egg

Mix all ingredients until smooth. Divide into two roaster pans. Bush with beaten egg and sprinkle with sesame seeds if desired.

Bake for one hour at 375.

Freezes very well.

Note: This makes a huge quantity. Feel free to halve or quarter the recipe and to bake in any size pan you like.

Thanks!

These are not "true" knishes, are they? In that it is more like a kugel? Not individual pieces, right?

That is correct. I also have one that is individual knishes. I'll find it and post it shortly.

This one is for individual knishes:

1/4 c. oil
2 lg. onions, diced
4-5 lg. potatoes
3 eggs, beaten
1 c. potato starch
2 tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. pepper
1 egg yolk, beaten for brushing

Cook potatoes until soft. Drain and mash well. Preheat oven to 350. Dice onions and sautee in oil. Combine with remaining ingredients. With wet hands form into 2" balls (or scoop with a small scooper). Place onto lined or greased cookie sheet. Flatten slightly for flat knishes or leave in balls for puff style knishes. Brush with egg yolk. Bake for 20-30 minutes or until golden brown.

Thanks. I think I'll make this one instead, since I already make a scalloped potatoes dish.

That knish recipe is very different from scalloped potatoes (I will also be making them). Personally I think the one cut in pieces is better, but this one is also good -- just a little more patchke which always counts by me Smile

Do you have an oil substitution for the first recipe?

Yes, actually I never use margarine. Just substitute oil -- and I don't use that much -- probably half a cup is enough -- you need enough to amply saute the onions and have enough moisture.

I also just edited the recipe to clarify that and that it is for sauteing the onions.

I would say about thirteen smaller/medium potatoes. Makes sense?

Or I use the enormous baking potatoes (sold in Sam's Club in 15 lb. bags) and for those each one is just under a pound.

I just made these, using an ice cream scoop to shape the individual knishes (dipped in a cup of water between each one). They're in the oven right now, and they look really pretty. Thanks!
