History of...hubby's grandparents on hubbies side escaped out of Russia in 1922. They were Russian German Mennonites. She taught hubby's mom who taught me this recipe...hope you enjoy
2 cubes butter (margerine is a NO NO)
1 whole onion chopped
8 - 10 potatoes peeled, chopped into cubes
1 lg bag of wide egg noodles (homemade ones are the best; use enough if homemade to feed 6+ people)
2 cups milk
water
salt, pepper to taste (hubby likes me to use garlic pepper or add a couple tsps of minced garlic
1. melt one cube butter in soup pan
2. saute onions till tender
3. add cubed potatoes and seasonings
4. add milk, stirring thoroughly
5. add second cube of butter
6. add enough water to cover potatoes and let simmer for about 45 minutes
7. then add noodles and cook till noodles are tender
If not thick enough for your liking add a little corn starch mixed with water to thicken
Now we serve this with homemade biscuits or zweibach (double decker rolls) with lots of butter
Like I said - could cause cardiac distress
Any questions, give me a shout.
