Directions: |
Directions:Beat the eggs well and combine with the water, flour and baking power. Add flour until you have a soft dough that will be slightly sticky. Let this rest in a warm place and cover with wax paper for 1-2 hours.
Divide the dough into four sections, roll out on an oiled surface and coat with warm Canola oil. Let set for 15-30 minutes. Take each section and place on an oiled surface and start stretching one section at a time until the dough is paper thin with your finger tips. Especially the outside. Roll up and cut into strips of 2-3 inches. Let it rest 15 more minutes covered with wax paper.
Fry chicken pieces in oil with onion and no coating in a frying pan. Once cooked, place in oven on warm.
Meanwhile, fry onions and sliced potatoes in oil in an electric skillet. Pour in 1 cup of water, add the strudels on top and cover the skillet for 20-30 minutes on 250 degrees-DO NOT OPEN UNTIL DONE. They are done when the pan does not steam. Remove the strudels from the pan and place in the oven on warm. Finish browning the potatoes until crisp. |

Notes: My paternal grandmother, Bertha Doering, made this recipe. Her daughter, Mary, continued the tradition. We ate the dish with fried chicken and potatoes every time we went to Armour, South Dakota to visit. It was my father's favorite dish and last prepared for our family, by Mary, while visiting Houston Sunday, October 5, 2008.
