POTATO PANCAKES or LATKES
Serves 4 for a main course, 6 on the side.
6 medium russet potatoes (white will do in a pinch)
salt
1 small onion, diced
2 eggs
1/4 - 1/3 c. flour
salt & pepper to taste
oil
Peel and grate the potatoes into a large bowl. Fill the large bowl
with cold water. Let the potatoes soak for 10-15 minutes, swishing
them occasionally. Drain. Refill with cold, salted water (not
too much, and you don't need the salt if you are sodium-restricted).
Soak for another 5-10 minutes. Drain in a colander. Drain a long
time. Press them out, wait, and press more. Toss them around.
Press some more (you get the picture).
Put the potatoes in the bowl with the diced onion, the eggs and
the flour, mix together, and salt & pepper to taste.
Heat about 1/4" of oil in a large skillet or electric frying pan
to around 350F. Spoon about 1/2 c. of the potato mixture into the
hot oil, spreading it out with the back of a pancake turner. Cook
until brown on the bottom (3-4 minutes?); turn and cook until golden
brown. Drain on paper towels.
