Adjust to suit your needs or taste. The author says, " Ordinary barley cereal tastes best. " Wash, peel and grate potatoes. Place in colander and let stand for 10 minutes, then press out remaining liquid. Mix with onions (the onions may be lightly fried first) and eggs. Add matzo meal, salt, pepper and baking powder. Mix well. Heat about 1/4-inch of salad oil in a large skillet and add soup-spoonfuls of latke mixture. Fry until golden brown on both sides. Keep in warm oven (180°F) until time to serve. Can be made up to a week in advance and frozen. (If not frozen, the potatoes will turn brown.) Reheat in 400°F oven for 10 minutes. Serve with applesauce, sour cream or plain yogurt, jam, powdered sugar or cinnamon. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - NOTES : This recipe is brought to you via the courtesy of the Jewish Community Online website.
