11 grete recipes

No Christmas feast in medieval times was complete without a 'grete pye'. In some recipes, it could contain many varied meats, but quite often only two or three different kinds were suggested; change the meats suggested here if you wish.

Grated potato pancakes with a smooth batter base: shredded potato folded into a milk-egg-flour batter and fried golden on a hot griddle. Pair with bacon, applesauce or stewed berries.

Classic grated potato pancakes (latkes) fried golden and crisp on the outside, tender on the inside. Onion, egg, and flour bind freshly grated potato into the original comfort-food fritter.

A crisp, raw grated courgette salad with carrot, celery, and red onion, brightened with lemon and piled over lemony baby spinach and sweet diced tomato. Light, fresh, and ready in minutes.

Lulen's grated apple pie shreds the apples instead of slicing for a custard-style filling bound with butter, egg, and cinnamon. Topped with pecans for crunch in a single-crust pie.
