In medium sized
bowl, combine mashed potatoes with eggs, margarine, salt, pepper,
and matzah meal. Sauté a diced whole onion until nice and brown
and add to mixture as well (this really adds to the flavor).
Form into walnut sized balls. Brush with diluted egg yolk. Place
on a well-greased baking sheet and bake in a preheated 400 oven
for 20 minutes or until well browned. Makes approximately 42
miniature knishes.
