Method
Preparation
- Peel the potatoes and onion. Using a box grater or food processor, grate both into a large bowl.
- Place the grated mixture into a clean kitchen towel and squeeze to remove excess liquid.
- In a large bowl, combine the mixture with eggs, flour, salt, and pepper. Stir until coated.
- Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Test with a tiny piece of mixture; if it sizzles, it’s ready.
Cooking
- Drop 2 tablespoons of the mixture into the hot oil for each latke, flattening them slightly.
- Fry for 3-5 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy.
- Remove from the pan and drain on paper towels.
Serving
- Serve hot with applesauce.
Notes
If you have leftovers, you can store cooked latkes in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, place them on a baking sheet in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for about 10 minutes to restore their crispiness.
