Potato Latke Recipe

Hanukah is around the corner, and one of the traditions is to light the menorah and make latkes.

Ingredients:
5 large potatoes, washed and peeled
1 large onion
3 eggs
1/3 cup flour (and on Pesach substitute matzo meal)
1 t. salt
1/4 t. pepper

Canola Oil

In a food processor with the grater blade, process the potatoes and onions in multiple steps.
Strain the potatoes and onion through a colander.
Put the potatoes and onions in a large bowl and add eggs, flour, salt and pepper and mix well.

Heat oil in either frying pan over medium heat or in an electric skillet.  Place batter onto the pan and fry for 5 minutes or until golden brown.  Turn over and fry on the other side for 2-3 minutes.

Remove from pan and place on paper towels on wire rack.  Continue with remaining batter until complete.  Add more oil when necessary.

Place on platter and serve with apple sauce.
