'course. As a child, the Kosher neighbor probably learned
recipes and sticks with them, either that or learned the
principles and can apply them to any ordinary recipe.

I certainly could make a Kosher meal without much trouble.

[and on another topic] I do too - the ones who are not venal are
often idealists, which can be annoying and dangerous;

but I cannot tolerate these.

That's kind of amusing.

 RH> Old-Fashioned Prune Whip

I've actually seen recipes like this in Jewish cookbooks;
I think Jennie Grossinger's (not Kosher, actually) has one.

 RH> Serve warm with custard sauce if desired.

Which would tend to make the dish milchig, of course.
Not only are milk-free custards hard to deal with, they
don't taste very good.

MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.02

      Title: Bimuelos De Massa
 Categories: Cyberealm, Kooknet, Jewish
      Yield: 15 2"pancakes

      4 lg Eggs
      1 c  Water
    1/2 ts Salt
      1 c  Regular or whole wheat
           .matzoh meal
           Oil for frying

  In a medium sized bowl, use a fork to mix the eggs, water and salt
  together. Stir in the matzoh meal. Let the mixture stand for about 10
  minutes to thicken slightly.

  In a large skillet, over medium high heat, heat the oil that is about
  1/8 inch deep. Spoon generous tablespoons of the batter into the oil.
  Fry the pancakes until they are golden brown on both sides.

  AUTHOR'S NOTE: These Sephardic pancakes are virtually identical to the
  more familiar Ashkenazic matzo meal latkes. Some Sephardim include
  them as part of the Seder meal. Other prefer to serve them for
  breakfast, accompanied by sugar, yogurt, and possibly, arrope -- a
  thick syrup made from raisins, that is also used as haroset in some
  households.

  Sometime Pesach bimuelos are made from matzoh farfel or crumbled
  matzos, which are soaked in water to soften them.

  VARIATIONS:

  1.      For fluffy bimuelos, separate the eggs. In a medium size bowl,
  combine the egg yolks, water and salt. Stir in the meal. In another
  bowl, use an electric mixer to beat the egg whites until they are
  stiff but not dry. Mix the beaten egg whites with the matzoh meal
  mixture. Use about 3 tablespoons for each pancake.
