Potato Latkes
December 8th, 2010
I don’t remember my grandma cooking much when I was young (my mom claims that she used to substitute ketchup for spaghetti sauce), but her potato latkes made up for any other shortcomings in the kitchen. I requested them nearly every time I saw her and until I made them by myself yesterday, I had no idea how much work was required. I followed this recipe, and got the best results when I squeezed out all of the excess water and made them really thin. I topped them off with sour cream, some chopped chives and apple sauce and can’t wait to make them for my grandma next time I see her.
mmm yummy! I always love your food how to’s! Although I’m a bit too lazy to try them… I love food pics…

These look amazingly delicious! I’ve always wanted to make latkes. Why? I have no idea. Seriously, I’ve been meaning to get around to it since like 7th grade. Perhaps with this recipe…
Just made these. Put a poached egg and cajun gravy on top! Sooo yummy!!!
I love a good latke and these look delicious!
wonderful! i can’t wait to have some this year
I have my own Hanukkah dinner planned with latkes and kugel for tomorrow night (dinner with friends tonight), which will be made infinitely easier with my new food processor.
Perfect! I was looking for a good latkes recipe for the Hanukkah party we’re having tomorrow night
I’ll give this one a shot
Happy Hanukkah
yummy!

These are a family tradition in my house. I sometimes use the frozen hash browns instead of cutting my potatoes. It works as a great substitute when you are short on time. It lets you skip straight to cooking the potatoes.
