Making Latkes is not as difficult as it looks! The only really hard part is the grating, if you dont own a food processor. So have fun making this Channukah favorite with your family and friends. Make sure you take turns grating so everyone gets a workout!
Ingredients:
5 potatoes
1 small onion
2 eggs
1 ½ tsp salt
Pepper to taste
2 tbsp flour
Oil for frying
Directions:
Grate potatoes into a bowl. Place potatoes in a clean hand towel and squeeze out excess water. Grate onion and add to potatoes. Add remaining ingredients and combine well.
Heat pan over medium-high heat and pour in oil. Spoon potato mixture into pan. Fry on one side for about 3-4 minutes, until golden brown. Flip to the other side and fry an additional 3-4 minutes. Remove from pan and drain on paper towels.
You can top with applesauce, sour cream, or get creative with a variety of sauces! You can also swap the regular potato with sweet potato, zucchini, or carrot instead for a new take on an old classic!
