Preparation
- Peel the potatoes and grate finely or press through a potato ricer.
- Work with the quark, flour, sugar, egg, salt and lemon zest into a dough that must not be wet. Add a little more flour if needed and work in the raisins last.
- With your hands, shape the dough into small, flat fritters.
- Heat the fat in a frying pan and fry the fritters in batches over a medium heat until golden brown on both sides. Not too hot, or they brown too quickly on the outside and are not cooked through inside.
- Drain on kitchen paper, sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar and serve with apple purée.
