Zubereitung von Potato Apple Latkes
- In a large bowl, whisk together 1 large egg, 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon white pepper.
- In a colander, combine 2 pounds shredded russet potatoes, 1/2 medium yellow onion (shredded), and 1 medium apple (such as Granny Smith, peeled, cored, and shredded). Squeeze out as much excess liquid as possible.
- Add the potato mixture to the bowl with the egg mixture and gently stir to combine.
- Let the mixture rest for 10 minutes.
- In a large skillet, heat 1/2 cup canola oil and 2 tablespoons of schmaltz over medium-high heat until shimmering.
- Drop heaping tablespoons of the latke mixture into the hot oil, about 2 inches apart. Flatten slightly with a fork.
- Fry the latkes for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy. Adjust heat as needed to prevent burning.
- Remove the latkes from the skillet and place them on a wire rack lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
- Repeat with the remaining latke mixture, adding more oil and schmaltz to the skillet as needed.
- Serve immediately with vanilla applesauce and sour cream.
- **Vanilla Applesauce:** Peel, core, and quarter 4 medium apples (about 2 pounds total).
- In a medium saucepan, combine the apples, 1/2 cup water, 1 vanilla bean (split and scraped), and 1 tablespoon lemon juice.
- Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-high, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes, or until apples are tender. Stir occasionally.
- Remove from heat and let cool slightly. Remove the vanilla bean and use an immersion blender or whisk to achieve your desired consistency (chunky or smooth).
