Ingredients
- 2 Lbs. Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled
- 2 large yellow onions
- 4 large eggs, lightly beaten
- 1/3 cup matzo meal
- salt to taste
- fresh ground pepper to taste
- 3/4 cup peanut oil (give or take)
- applesauce and sour cream for serving
Directions
- Using the medium-sized shredding blade of a food processor, grate the potatoes.
- Grate onions on top of the potatoes to avoid browning.
- Lay a super-clean (and lint-free) dishtowel inside a large bowl and put the grated mixture into the towel.
- Roll the towel and wring out as much of the moisture as possible.
- Place the mixture in a mixing bowl and add the eggs, matzo, salt, and pepper.
- Mix well.
- In a large skillet (cast-iron is best) heat about 1/8 inch of oil over medium heat. The oil is hot enough if it sizzles when a bit of potato is added.
- Pat out a small "tester" latke and fry on both sides till golden brown.
- Taste and adjust seasonings as needed.
- To form latkes scoop about a 1/2 cup of potato mixture and pat into a pancake about 1/2 inch thick.
- As you work, liquid will accumulate in the bowl; squeeze out the patties as needed.
- After shaping the pancake slip it into the hot oil and press gently with the back of a spatula.
- Fry for about 5 minutes on each side until deep golden brown.
- Flip each latke only once.
- Add oil between batches as necessary; take time to let the oil heat up before adding more latkes.
- Drain on a paper towel.
- Serve immediately with applesauce and sour cream (ketchup only if you must).

This is very different from my recipe, Erin. I'll have to try yours ! I will post mine around Chanukah time. And, I must admit...I either eat mine with ketchup or plain. I don't like sour cream or applesauce!
