The dough of the Saxon dessert consists of grated jacket potatoes and lean quark , as well as eggs and flour . The ratio of potatoes to quark varies considerably from recipe to recipe (e.g. 3: 1, 7: 5, 4: 3 or even 1: 1), but the following applies: the more flour is replaced by potatoes, the looser it becomes the dough. Flavored dough with is sugar and cinnamon and grated lemon peel or lemon juice. Raisins can be added for refinement , which have previously been optionally placed in brown rum. The dough, which is up to 1 cm thick, is fried in hot fat on both sides until golden brown.
