Fat Grandma’s Potato Knishes

I never knew “Fat Grandma” (my wife’s ex-mother-in-law—the moniker was affectionate, not descriptive), but I’ve often eaten her fabulous potato knishes. What’s nice about these knishes is that they’re free-form: you pat the filling into shape with your hands. You don’t need to fuss with a crust. To trim the fat, I’ve eliminated some of the chicken fat and egg yolks, adding fresh herbs to achieve a vibrant Old World flavor without fat.
