Number Of Ingredients 7

Ingredients

5 medium potatoes, peeled
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons grated onion
1 ½ teaspoons salt
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
4 large eggs, beaten
1 cup oil for frying, or as needed

Steps:

Place potatoes in salted water and let sit for about 15 minutes.
Grate potatoes on a medium or fine setting. Press out liquid; this should produce about 4 cups grated potato.
Place grated potato in a bowl and stir in flour, onion, salt, and pepper. Fold in eggs.
Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
Heat enough oil in a deep pan to reach 1/4 inch up the sides. Heat over medium-high heat until a drop of batter sizzles. Lower heat to medium.
Working in batches, drop batter into the hot oil in desired size and flatten into pancakes; brown on both sides, 5 to 7 minutes per side. Transfer to the prepared pans and keep warm in the preheated oven while you fry remaining batter.

Categories Potato

Number Of Ingredients 5

Ingredients

2 pound large boiling potatoes
3 tablespoons coarsely grated onion
1 teaspoon kosher salt
Freshly ground white pepper
¼ cup olive oil

Steps:

Cook potatoes in salted water to cover until barely tender about 15 to 20 minutes. Rinse under cold water. Cool potatoes and peel with a sharp knife. Coarsely shred potatoes lengthwise (long strands help hold the latkes together) into a bowl using large holes of a grater and stir in onion, salt and white pepper to taste. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a 10-inch nonstick skillet over moderate heat until hot but not smoking, then add half of potatoes, spreading with a spatula to form an even cake. Cook until underside is golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes. Invert a large plate over skillet and invert latke onto plate. Add 1 tablespoon oil to skillet and slide latke back in. Cook until underside is golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes. Slide latke onto serving plate and keep warm. Make another in same manner.
