Savory Potato Rolls (A/K/A Potato Knishes the Easy Way)

Ingredients

• 6 medium potatoes, parboiled in their skins, peeled, and mashed
• 2 medium onions, minced
• 4 tablespoons oil
• salt
• pepper
• 2 eggs, beaten
• 1 (17 ounce) package puff pastry, defrosted (2 sheets)

Directions

1. 1

   Put the puff pastry in your refrigerator to defrost for when you are ready to use it.

2. 2

   Parboil potatoes. Drain, cool, peel, grate or mash. Set aside.

3. 3

   Saute minced onions in oil over a medium to high flame. Add salt, pepper to taste. Saute until golden brown (or brown if you prefer). Cool and set aside.

4. 4

   Mix together the potatoes, onions, eggs, and any optional things you want to add, like kasha or 'shrooms or other seasonings.

5. 5

   Roll out each puff pastry sheet until about 12" long. Slice in half lengthwise.

6. 6

   For each piece of dough, spread 1/4 of the filling along the long side of the dough, making a long, thin mound of filling. Fold the dough over and roll up jelly-roll fashion. Pinch the ends shut. Repeat with other pieces of dough.

7. 7

   Place on a baking sheet (I use parchment paper on mine). Bake at 400F for about 20 minutes, or until the top is nice and golden brown.

8. 8

   Remove from oven. Cool a bit, and then slice each roll into about 8 pieces.

9. 9

   Sit back and enjoy!
