Der Yid has a full supplement, also of pesach recipes for ppl who keep Satmar type chumras. (yes potato starch & sugar, but not unpeelable veggies etc.) It's worth spending the $2.00 just for the pesach recipes.

The ingredients are listed in english but the instructions are in yiddish.

Of course I dont know if they "taste" amazing. The pictures are amazing and the ingredients are stuff we use.

I was just wondering, their recipes have chocolate in them, AFAIK satmar doesnt use chocolate and I was kind of surprised to see a ecipe with it there. (or am I wrong?)

what an assortment!

I have started buying Der Yid only since the Family supplement was initiated.
I love the stories by R. Spitzer and the recipes.
I usually clip them and file them away.

Could I Please have the recipe for the vegetable cutlets and the potato chicken nuggets. I would ask for teh lukshen kugel except I am assuming that it means frying a million blintzes and cutting them up but if I'm wrong and it is something simple I would take that too.

Thanks so much!

Vegetable Cutlets
-2 zucchini, optional
-2 carrots
-1 onion
-2 potatoes
-1 small parsley root
-2 eggs
-2 Tbsp potato starch
-salt and pepper

Peel and grate vegetables. Add egg, potato starch, and salt and pepper to taste. Fry into cutlets.

Potato Chicken Nuggets
-1 pack chicken beilig, cut into bite sized pieces
Batter
-1 large or 2 medium cooked potatoes, mashed

-white pepper, optional

Combine the eggs, salt, potato starch, and white pepper. Add mashed potatoes and mix until well combined - okay if a bit lumpy.
Dip chicken pieces into batter. Fry until golden.

You are right about the lukshen kugel - made out of crepes.

Tomorrow's paper will also be chock full of amazing recipes: Salads and desserts!!! I'll let you know how good it is.

Luving, I LOVVVE LOVVVE LOVVVE the women's section they started a few months ago!!! it's so amazing I stopped buying Maalos. The R. Spitzer stories are unbelievable. Remembr the story a few weeks back about the parents of special children? I cried and cried. I read it several times and just internalized the message over and over. I wish I'd have found the time to write them a letter thanking them for the article. I am saving that one! In general, all her stories are so inspiriational.
