Preparation:
This is the way my mother made "Potato Latkes" (Of course, there were no measurements!):
Grate raw potatoes and onion together. (We used one of the old, old, heavy- duty, metal grinders). Add a dash of baking powder and salt. Stir. Add some flour. Stir. Add beaten eggs.
(Guide: For 3 cups of potato, use 2 tbsp. flour and 2 eggs).
Fry spoonfuls of mixture in hot oil until golden on both sides. Drain on a paper towels. Serve warm with applesauce (my favorite), jam or sugar. |
