Carrot Patties in Raisin Sauce

Ingredients

 * 2 c. finely grated peeled carrots
 * 2 c. matzo meal
 * 2 eggs, well beaten
 * 1/3 cup milk or orange juice
 * 1 t. cinnamon
 * 1/2 t. salt
 * 1/2 t. grated orange rind
 * 2 T. butter or margarine

Sauce:


 * 1 T. potato starch
 * 1/3 c. water
 * 1/3 c. orange juice
 * 1/2 cup raisins
 * 1/3 cup currant jelly
 * 1/2 t. grated orange rind

Directions
In a large bowl, combine the carrots, matzo meal, eggs, milk or orange juice, cinnamon, salt and grated orange rind. Work the mixture with the hands until an evenly blended mass is formed. Shape the mixture into 8 to 10 patties. Melt the butter or margarine in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the patties; saute until golden on each side and cooked through. (Patties may be baked in a preheated moderate oven, 350F, on a greased baking sheet, for 10-15 minutes, until golden on each side and cooked through.) To prepare the sauce, mix the potato starch with the water in a small saucepan. Stir in the orange juice, raisins, currant jelly, and grated orange rind. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently until the mixture thickens and boils. Spoon the sauce over the carrot patties before serving.
