Kaspressknoedel (pan-fried cheese and bread patty) Explanation: I would definitely keep the Austrian name and explain the term in brackets afterwards. Many people like to know what specialities are called, after all. A patty by definition is a round, flattened cake made of minced food, which is pan-friedin this instance. Patty gets across the idea that the Pressknödel is flat, as opposed to the normal round Knödel. As cheese and bread are the main ingredients, both of these need to be mentioned, either as a bread patty with cheese, or as a cheese and bread patty. http://www.google.de/imgres?imgurl=http://4.bp.blogspot.com/... |
