Cómo preparar Basic Potato Latkes
- Peel and coarsely grate 2 large russet potatoes.
- Place the grated potatoes in a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth. Squeeze out as much excess moisture as possible. This step is crucial for crispy latkes!
- In a large bowl, combine the squeezed potatoes with 1/2 medium yellow onion (also grated), 2 large eggs, 1/4 cup all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, and 1/4 teaspoon baking powder.
- Gently mix all ingredients until just combined. Don't overmix!
- Heat 1/4 cup vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
- Once the oil is hot (a pinch of batter should sizzle immediately), drop spoonfuls of the potato mixture into the skillet, flattening them slightly with the back of the spoon.
- Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy. Adjust heat as needed to prevent burning.
- Remove latkes from the skillet and place them on a wire rack or paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
- Serve immediately with your favorite toppings, such as applesauce or sour cream.
