BAKED POTATO PANCAKES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
• Combine potatoes, onion, garlic, parsley and eggs in a large bowl.
• Add in all purpose flour and breadcrumbs. Mix to combine. Try not to over mix. We want our pancakes to be light and fluffy.
• Add in salt, pepper, and Parmesan cheese. Fold to combine.
• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Spread 1 tablespoon of olive oil onto the parchment paper. Do not wash your hands.
• With your oiled hands portion out 8 potato pancakes. The thinner the better we want them to be crispy. Not to thin were they fall apart.
• Place in the oven and cook for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway. The pancakes should be a nice golden brown color.
• Serve immediately with a dollop of sour cream on each and fresh parsley for garnish.

• Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large skillet to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Form latke dough into baseball-size balls and flatten into 1-inch thick rounds.
• Working in batches, place latkes in hot oil and cook until edges are a rich brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Flip latkes using a slotted spoon and cook until crisp and golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes more. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to cool.

MOM'S POTATO LATKES

Steps:

• Mix potato, onion, eggs, crackers, salt, and pepper together in a large bowl.
• Pour enough vegetable oil into a skillet to fill about 1/2-inch deep; heat over medium-high heat.
• Drop spoonfuls of the potato mixture, first pressing potato mixture against the side of the bowl to remove excess liquid, into the hot oil; slightly flatten the latkes into the oil with the back of your spoon so they are evenly thick.
• Cook in hot oil until browned and crisp, 3 to 5 minutes per side. Drain latkes on a plate lined with a paper towel.

BAKED LATKES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with unbleached parchment paper marked as safe for high heat baking or with nonstick foil. Spray the parchment paper or foil with oil.
• Grate the potatoes using your food processor's grating attachment. Wipe the food processor clean with a paper towel, and use the food processor's standard blade to chop the onion.
• Place the shredded potatoes and the chopped onion in a colander over a bowl and press firmly with your hands, repeatedly, to remove as much liquid as possible.
• Empty the bowl from the liquid, wipe with a paper towel, and transfer the potato/onion mixture to the bowl.
• In another small bowl, beat the egg with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
• Add the egg mixture to the potato mixture and stir, then add the flour and stir to combine.
• Drop spoonfuls of the mixture into the prepared baking sheet, forming 12 very thin pancakes- press with your hands to flatten the patties as much as you can, while keeping their shape.
• Generously spray the latkes with oil.
• Bake the latkes for 15 minutes, until crisp and deep golden brown on the bottom. Remove pan from oven, flip the latkes to the other side, spray again with oil, and bake 10-15 more minutes, until crisp and deep golden brown on the second side.
• Serve immediately, with a dollop of plain Greek yogurt or sour cream.

• Drop potato mixture into hot oil in frying pan.
• Flip over when bottom is browned, then smash down to flatten into a pancake.
• Fry on 2nd side until brown.
• Drain on paper towels and then transfer to a cookie sheet in a single layer.

• At this point, the latkas can be served immediately, frozen or refrigerated to be served within 24 hours.
• NOTE: Reheat refrigerated latkas at 350 degrees for 20-30 minutes and frozen ones at 450 degrees for 7-10 minutes.
