Bohemian cooking with Rajčel


So here's my first attempt at making Bramborak, traditional czech potato pancakes. They looked a bit messy, but tasted pretty good. (As I'm my mother's daughter I ate these with applesauce, something no Czech would ever do.)

The recipie, which I got from a colleauge, is fairly simple:

-grate some potatoes, then press all the water out.
-grate a clove or two of garlic.
-add marjoram, salt and cumin
(the cumin/carroway seed is optional, but recommended)
-add a bit of flower, to help it stick together
-add an egg or two, and mix.

Fry the whole thing and tady to je! Bramboraky.
