Here is an extremely easy recipe for a traditional Chanukah dish that kids can help with.

Ingredients:

• 1 egg
• 1 t. milk
• 1 large potato
• 1/4 c. cheddar cheese
• 1 T.  Flour
• salt and pepper to taste
• oil

Instructions:

• Wash and peel the potato.
• Carefully grate the potato and the cheese (watch for little fingers if the kids help!).
• Beat the egg, milk and flour together with a whisk.
• Combine all of the ingredients and add salt and pepper if desired.
• Heat a frying pan and add just enough oil so the potatoes don't stick.
• Drop the potato mixture by spoonfuls into the hot pan and fry until lightly browned on each side.
• Serve with applesauce and sour cream.
• It's best when it's hot.
