Kehrs

Kehrs are a traditional German dish, originating from the Palatinate region, particularly in the town of Kaiserslautern. The dish is named after the Kehr family, who were renowned for their cooking. Kehrs are typically made with a base of potatoes, which are boiled and then mashed with butter, cream, and various seasonings. The potatoes are then mixed with a variety of ingredients, such as bacon, onions, mushrooms, and sometimes even cheese or other vegetables. The mixture is then baked in a casserole dish until it is golden brown and bubbly. Kehrs are often served as a side dish or a main course, and are known for their rich, creamy flavor and hearty texture. The dish has gained popularity beyond the Palatinate region and is now enjoyed in various forms across Germany and beyond.
