An old family favorite my mother-in-law gave me. Good recipe if you like throwing things together and not using exact measurements.

Ingredients:
5-6 potatoes
1 onion
oil
1 Tbl. "budapest" paprika
4 eggs
1 tsp. salt
flour

Directions:
Peel potatoes and cut into chunks. Boil in water, with cut up onions, for 20 minutes no longer. You'll want a little more than enough water in the pot. With a slotted spoon, remove potatoes and onions. SAVE the WATER.

Beat eggs with 2 Tbls. or so of water and salt. Add enough flour till thick and when you tip the bowl the mixture runs down a little. Dip spoon in water before slicing off noodles, from flour/egg mixture, into reserved water. This keeps the dough from sticking to the spoon.

Cook until water boils, remove noodles and continue till all dough is used.

In a large pan, add anough oil to cover the bottom and add the paprika. Heat a little (watch this can burn fast). Add the noodles and potatoes and onions. Cook some more till a little crispy around the edges.

I never measure anything - I just add ingredients as per my family's likes and dislikes. So I just love this recipe. It's a lot faster than it sounds. Good as a main meal or side dish.

Prep time: 45 min. or so

Makes 6 or so side dishes
