Latkes are one of my favorite foods...not too healthy but oh so yummy!!
Potato latkes are a standard Hanukkah tradition. The idea, during Hannukkah is to eat deep-fried foods because of the legend that the oil in the temple, one day's worth, burned for eight days.
POTATO LATKES
6 potatoes, pared 1/4 tsp pepper
1 small onion, grated 1/4 cup flour
3 eggs 1 tbsp oil
1 tsp salt 2 tsp baking powder
oil for frying
Grate potatoes and drain well.Blend in remaining ingredients. Drop from a spoon into hot oil and brown on both sides, turning only once.
Yield: about 2 dozen
Serve with sour cream or applesauce or both.
Stuart likes his with salt.
Something i have occasionally done is instead of (or added TO) the potato, is use shredded zucchini. YUMMY!!
