MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06 Title: Classic Potato Latkes Categories: Potatoes, Vegetables Yield: 36 Servings 2 lg Russet potatoes; scrubbed, - quartered lengthwise 1 lg Onion; peeled, quartered 2 lg Eggs 1/2 c A-P flour 1 ts Salt; more for sprinkling 1 ts Baking powder 1/2 ts Fresh ground black pepper - oil; for frying Using a food processor with a coarse grating disc, grate the potatoes and onion. Transfer the mixture to a clean dishtowel and squeeze and wring out as much of the liquid as possible. Working quickly, transfer the mixture to a large bowl. Add the eggs, flour, salt, baking powder, and pepper, and mix until the flour is absorbed. In a medium heavy-bottomed pan over medium-high heat, pour in about 4" of the oil. Once the oil is hot (a drop of batter placed in the pan should sizzle), use a heaping tablespoon to drop the batter into the hot pan, cooking in batches. Use a spatula to flatten and shape the drops into discs. When the edges of the latkes are brown and crispy, about 5 minutes, flip. Cook until the second side is deeply browned, about another 5 minutes. Transfer the latkes to a paper towel-lined plate to drain and sprinkle with salt while still warm. Repeat with the remaining batter. Recipe by Melissa Clark Recipe FROM: https://cooking.nytimes.com Uncle Dirty Dave's Archives MMMMM
