INGREDIENTS

  • Main Ingredients

    • 🥔 3 medium russet potatoes, peeled
    • 🥚 1 large egg, beaten, or more to taste
    • 🌾 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
    • 🧅 1 tablespoon grated onion
    • 🧂 ½ teaspoon salt, or more to taste

  • Frying Oil

    • ¼ cup peanut oil for frying, or as needed

STEPS

1

Gather all ingredients.

2

Slice peeled potatoes and shred them using a food processor fitted with the grater attachment. Squeeze shredded potatoes in a cheesecloth to remove moisture.

3

Measure 2 cups of shredded, drained potatoes and transfer to a medium bowl. Add egg, flour, onion, and salt, and mix until combined.

4

Heat 1/4 inch of oil in a heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat. Place spoonfuls of potato mixture into the oil, flattening them into patties. Fry until golden brown, 4-5 minutes per side.

5

Drain cooked latkes on a paper towel-lined plate. Repeat frying with remaining potato mixture.

6

Serve the latkes warm with applesauce, sour cream, or smoked salmon as desired.

💡 Use a cheesecloth or kitchen towel to remove as much moisture as possible from the grated potatoes. This helps the latkes crisp up better.Refrigerate or freeze leftover latkes, then reheat in the oven for a crisp texture.For additional flavor, add garlic or herbs like chives to the latke mixture.Keep latkes warm in an oven set to 200°F (93°C) if cooking in large batches.
