Hey everyone, I hope you are having an amazing day today. Today, I’m gonna show you how to make a special dish, latke. One of my favorites. This time, I’m gonna make it a little bit unique. This is gonna smell and look delicious.

These latkes were so awesome, just like my grandmother and mom used to make. I used the food processor's large grater blade and kept the grated potato in ice water until I had all the ingredients in the bowl and then squeezed the water out and added them. The word latke is derived (via Yiddish) from the East Slavic word oladka, a diminutive from oladya, "small pancake".

Latke is one of the most popular of current trending meals on earth. It is easy, it is quick, it tastes delicious. It is appreciated by millions daily. Latke is something which I’ve loved my whole life. They are nice and they look fantastic.

To get started with this particular recipe, we must prepare a few ingredients. You can cook latke using 7 ingredients and 6 steps. Here is how you cook it.

The ingredients needed to make Latke:

1. Take 2 medium Potatoes (peeled)
2. Get 1 small Onion (minced)
3. Get 3 tbsp Plain flour
4. Make ready 1 large Egg
5. Take 1 tsp Salt
6. Make ready 1 dash Pepper
7. Get 2 tbsp Olive oil

This classic, easy latke recipe yields crisp, golden brown potato pancakes every time. What is the secret to making great latkes? We found that the starchier the potato, the crisper the latke. They may be topped with a variety of condiments, ranging from the savory (such as sour cream or cottage cheese), to the sweet (such as apple sauce or sugar.

Steps to make Latke:

1. Prepare the potatoes by peeling them (or leave the skin on depending on what type you are using). Use a julienne peeler to cut up 70% of the potato and use a regular grater on the rest.
2. Heat a frying pan up over medium heat and grease it with 2 tablespoons of oil. Add 3 tablespoons of the mixture to the pan and flatten them out until 1 cm thick.
3. Finely chop the onion, or cut it up with a julienne peeler, and mix it with the potato, flour, salt, pepper, and egg.
4. Cook the latke for 2-3 minutes on one side, then flip them over and cook them for 1.5 minutes on the other, just how you would cook pancakes.
5. When the latke are golden brown they're ready. Many Jewish families enjoy these with sour cream or apple sauce. My favourite 3 "alternative" toppings are Sriracha Hot Sauce, okonomiyaki sauce, and garlic butter.
6. I often make this variation of latke too with zucchini. I was trying to re-create the same style of latke that I saw for sale in the side-dish section of a supermarket.

For an updated take on the classic latke recipe, we opted to bake the potato pancakes rather than fry them in oil. The move makes for thin, delightfully crispy pancakes that are perfectly browned but not too greasy. And while you might not be eager to try a new recipe during Hanukkah, consider this: You can whip up two dozen latkes, all at once.
