POTATO LATKES
ESTER MINA'S AWESOME LATKES
(Could be better than Grandma's!)
INGREDIENTS:
5 large potatoes, peeled
2 onions
2 eggs
3/4 cup matzoh meal
2 tsp salt
dash pepper
1/4 cup oil for frying
DIRECTIONS:
Grind potatoes, onions and eggs finely together in food processor. Mix with matzah meal, salt and pepper.
Heat 1/4 cup oil in 10-inch skillet. Fry large serving-spoon globs for approximately 5 minutes until golden brown.
Turn over and fry on other side for 2-3 minutes.
(My Aunt Mim always said to use peanut oil cause it has the highest flashpoint and can cook hottest.)
Drain on absorbent paper.
Serve with applesauce, sour cream or sugar.
