Number Of Ingredients 12

2 1/2 pounds potatoes, peeled and quartered
2 large onions (use 1 1/2 cups grated; don't tamp down)
3 eggs, beaten
1 teaspoon baking powder
3/4 cup corn oil
1 cup flour
2 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
2 cups matzo meal
1/2 cup corn oil for frying
Applesauce
Sour cream

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. In a food processor, fine-grate potatoes (don't liquefy; leave some texture), and strain to eliminate excess liquid. Don't overdo it; just let the water drain out. Fine-grate onions, and mix in a large bowl with potatoes. (If you don't have a food processor, you can grind the potatoes and onions in a meat grinder.)
  • 2. Add eggs, baking powder, 3/4 cup corn oil (most of it cooks out), flour, salt, and pepper; mix well. Fold in matzo meal, making sure that everything is very well blended.
  • 3. Heat 1/2 cup corn oil in a deep skillet. Spoon batter (use a large kitchen spoon) into the pan to create pancakes about 3 1/2 inches in diameter. Fry on low heat for 3 to 4 minutes until underside is a deep golden brown, turn, and fry for another minute or two. Drain on paper towel. Serve with applesauce and/or sour cream.

These are the best potato latkes I've ever had. They were so easy to make and they turned out perfectly crispy. I will definitely be making these again and again.

I'm not a huge fan of latkes, but I thought I'd give this recipe a try. I'm so glad I did! These latkes were delicious. They were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. I'll definitely be making these again.

These latkes were amazing! I used Yukon Gold potatoes and they were so fluffy and flavorful. I served them with sour cream and applesauce and they were a hit.

Overall, these latkes were a good recipe. I would definitely make them again, but I would make a few adjustments to the recipe.

The latkes were a bit too thick for my taste. I think I would grate the potatoes finer next time.

I found that the latkes were a bit bland. I think I would add more salt and pepper next time.

These latkes were a bit too oily for my taste. I think I would use less oil next time.
