Happy Hanukkah everyone!
Our favorite thing about Hanukkah?
What else?
Potato Latkes!
Best things ever…
Latkes
Prep Time: 10 minutes Cook Time: 20 minutes
What you need:
3 ½ cups shredded potatoes (for fast latkes use the store bought kind)
½ sweet onion, grated
3 eggs, beaten
¼ cup matzo meal (you could substitute all purpose flour too)
S&P
½ cup peanut oil for frying
What to do:
Using a cheese cloth squeeze all the moisture out of your potatoes.
Once you’ve gotten them as dry as you can, place them into a large bowl with the onion, eggs, matzo meal, and season with S&P. Stir together well to combine.
Preheat a large skillet and your peanut oil over medium high heat. Form the mixture into small silver dollar pancake size latkes. Working in batches place the latkes down into the oil.
Cook until golden brown, then flip to brown the other side. Drain on paper towels, serve hot with applesauce and sour cream.
Now gather round the table, light some candles, play some dreidel and enjoy. Happy Hanukkah!!!

My brother in law makes latkes every single year. In five years, I still haven’t been in town to enjoy them when he makes them. I am making them myself this year and I can hardly wait to try them! Happy Hanukkah and Merry Christmas to you and yours.
