Flourless Potato Pancakes
Serves: 10-12 people (or more)
Prep Time: 45 minutes
Cooking Time: 45 minutes
- 12 –13 medium Idaho russet potatoes
- 1 large onion
- 4 eggs
- Vegetable oil
- Salt
- Peel potatoes .
TIP: Keep potatoes in ice cold water to keep them from turning brown. - Grate the potatoes in a Cuisinart.
- Grate the onion in the Cuisinart.
- Mix together and add 4 eggs.
- Pour vegetable oil into a large skillet, enough to fill the pan about one-eighth of the way up the sides. Heat the oil over medium-high heat. TIP: Splash a drop of water into the oil, if it sizzles the oil is ready!
- Drop the potato mixture (one large tablespoonful per latke) into the hot oil and fry until golden brown and crisp (about 3 to 4 minutes per side). Cook 3 or 4 in a batch.
- Always make sure you have enough oil in the pan. After about 2 batches you will probably need to add oil.
- When browned and crisp remove the latkes and place them on a brown paper bag to drain excess oil.
- Sprinkle with salt to taste and serve.
- If made a little ahead of time place on cookie sheet in oven at 400-425 until ready to serve.
