with cooked ham and cheese

Place the grated potatoes in a sieve and squeeze the excess water gently. Transfer to a bowl, add the eggs, onion, salt, and nutmeg (to taste), and stir. Thicken with a little flour if necessary (the batter should be thick). Heat the oil in a frying pan, ladle the batter into the pan, and form small, oval pancakes (approx. 17 x 10 cm, three in a 24 cm pan). Fry until golden brown on both sides. Transfer to an ovenproof dish, sprinkle with the ham cubes, then the cheese. Bake in a preheated oven at 200°C for 10-15 minutes (until the cheese is bubbling and lightly browned). Serve and enjoy.
