Punnet of cottage cheese
1 tbsp milk

Method

To make the caraway cheese put the seeds and the salt in a pestle and mortar and grind a bit, seeds will hold their shape but a flavourous dust will grind off. Combine with the ccheese and milk. Stir and refridgerate.
Grate the potato and squeeze the water out of them with your hands into the sink.
Combine thouroughly with onion, egg, flour and salt.
Put into a seive and place on a bowl so that the mixture drips out as you make the patties.
In a not stick pan fry heaped dessert spoons of the mixture. Try not to make them to circular or they will not cook in the middle, so flattern them with a spoon. Dry on paper towl on a tray in a warm oven.
