    Categories: Potatoes, Greens, Vegetables, Dairy, Cheese   
         Yield: 12 servings   
      
         4 md Potatoes; grated   
       1/2 lg Onion; fine chopped   
         1 lg Egg   
         2 tb A-P flour

     moisture as possible.   
      
     In a large bowl, mix grated potatoes, onion, egg, flour,

     slightly wet hands.

     pieces of black olives for eyes.   
      
     UDD NOTE: Place pimento pieces for the iris of the eye to    
     really make it "spooky".   
      
     Serve immediately with ketchup or salsa for dipping.
