My mother made a variation of this dish every time she had leftover roast beef. The only difference was she didn't add eggs. I was so pleased to find this recipe because I had never been able to duplicate hers. Recipe & Photo: germanfood.about.com

  • Step 5
    Continue browning until heated through and crispy, stirring or flipping as needed. Add oil or butter as necessary.
