Shortly after we moved into our house, my good friend and neighbor Rivky Z. sent us over some of this delicious dish. I was surprised to learn that it didn’t have any eggs or oil. It was an instant hit in my family, and I save it for special occasions.  During the year, I add a loaf of Meal Mart Kishka, and after a few hours of cooking, when it’s soft, I  use a fork to  crumble the kishka and blend it into this dish. For Pesach, I didn’t want to create a kishka just for a Chol Hamoed supper, so I decided to take the flavors of the kishka and add it into the dish.  Put it up in the morning, go out for a Chol Hamoed trip, come home to a delicious-smelling, hot supper waiting for you.

Ingredients

Main ingredients

  • 2 large Vidalia onions

  • 5 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and rinsed

  • 1 zucchini, peeled

Directions

Prepare the Yapchik

1.

Prepare slow cooker on low heat.

2.

Using the “s” blade in your food processor, grate onions and place in slow cooker.

Can this be prepared at all in advance? Frozen?
