Yield: 6 Servings

From: Gaye Levy DTXT63A

-----------COOKING THE SEPHARDIC WAY----------------

      1 lb Ground meat
      1 c  Leeks; cooked; squeezed &
           -- (4-6 medium fresh)
      1 c  Potatoes; mashed
      2    Eggs; beaten
      1 ts Salt
           Pepper to taste
           Oil; to fry

This dish is traditionally served for Passover.

Wash, cut up and parboil leeks approximately 10 minutes or until tender. Drain off all water, squeeze, and chop very fine. Mix leeks with remaining ingredients. Shape into small patties and fry.

Note: Our family always makes these in advance. After cooking, lemon juice is poured over and they are refrigerated. They taste delicious when reheated the next day.
