Guest guest Posted November 28, 2005 Report Share Posted November 28, 2005 Thank you Linda, what can be better than a true good old family recipe. They seem simple enough to make. I'll be enjoying these soon. Lawanna -- In , " linda " <lindai81@c...> wrote: > > Being Jewish I of course have a latke recipe. Used many years.

Squish the water out, or wring it, how ever you want to term it, but get the excess moisture out. I use the food processor for the above. If you grate it is a different texture than if you grate and chop it with the bottom blade too. You'll have to try and see which one you like. The grated ones cook slower, but have more texture, the grated and chopped ones have less texture but do cook faster. I like them both so you have to try it and see which you like. You could do a batch and do half one way and the other half the other way. When we do them at a large Hanukkah party we do the grate and chop in order to get them out fast. You can keep them warm in the oven too. > > Mix the potatoes, carrots, onion with: > > 2 whole eggs (for vegan substitute 1/4 cup of silken tofu, that is the kind in the unrefrigerated box) > 1 1/2 tsp baking powder > 1 tsp salt > 1 1/2 TBSP Flour > > Fry in hot oil until brown and done on both sides.
