Hi Klaus,

Kindly disregard my previous reply to you. I confused your interests
with another German researcher who is helping me research the Bartling
line. I apologize for my confusion---Bob

Hi Bob,

this seams to me as "Kartoffelpuffer" or "Kartoffel-Pfannkuchen".
Look at this:

Kartoffelpuffer von Carrie123| Chefkoch

Kartoffel = potatos

Zubereitung

Kartoffeln und Zwiebel reiben, mit den anderen Zutaten vermengen.
Margarine in die Pfanne, ein Häufchen Kartoffelmasse in die heiße
Pfanne
und flachdrücken. Von beiden Seiten goldgelb braten. Bei uns ist ein

Kartoffelpuffer immer ca. 1/2 Pfanne groß.
Wer es süß mag, die Kartoffelpuffer zum Schluss mit Zucker
bestreuen.
Wir essen gern Apfelmus dazu.
