Ora Domb's Potato Latkes

Categories: Post2

Serves: 4 servings

Ingredients:

4 md Potatoes
1 md Onion
2 Eggs
Salt; to taste
Ground pepper; to taste
1 ts Baking powder
Vegetable oil; for frying
Sour cream; (optional)
Applesauce; (optional)

Instructions:
Grate potatoes and onion into bowl. Beat in eggs. Add salt, pepper and
baking powder. Heat oil in a large skillet. Drop mixture into hot oil by
large spoonfuls. Fry until golden brown on both sides. Serve immediately
with sour cream or applesauce. Yield: 4 to 6 servings.

Comments: Some cooks place the grated potatoes in a large sheet of
cheesecloth or triple layers of paper towels and squeeze out all the water
before mixing with the other ingredients. Others take a clean, empty can
with both ends removed. Place the can on a plate; put some of the potato
mixture in the can. Pack down, then slowly lift the can to make the latkes
higher.
