My Oma loved us so much that she made us homemade kartoffelpuffer whenever we wanted them! While they are quite a bit of work—shredding all of those potatoes and onions is no small task—the result is a super delicious comfort meal. Eating them hot out of the pan at her kitchen table brings back the best memories. I like to top them with a sprinkle of sugar, chives, applesauce, and a dollop of sour cream—just the way we ate them at Oma Sieghilde’s house when we were kids. Other popular ways
