Here's a recipe I've used to make Latkes (my family LOVES em!).....some recipes add green onions, caviar as a topping, lots of variations......

This recipe is pretty simple...

Ingredients

4 large potatoes

1 medium onion

1 egg, beaten

2 tablespoons Matzo meal, corn meal, or flour

salt to taste

2 tablespoons vegetable oil (for less oily latkes), or enough oil to fill the pan to about 1/4 inch (1/2 cm).

applesauce and/or sour cream

Procedure

Peel potatoes and onion and grate.

Optionally soak the resulting mixture in water, or squeeze it in a dishtowel, in order to remove excess starch.

Mix potato and onion with egg, meal, and salt.

Heat oil in a 10" pan over medium heat until it is quite hot. Drop 1-2 tablespoons of the potato mixture onto the pan per pancake.

Turn once to allow both sides to fry. Allow 10-15 minutes total.

Serve with applesauce and/or sour cream as a topping.

Serves four.
