How to Make My Potato Latkes Gluten Free

  1. Peel 2 large russet potatoes.
  2. Use the coarse side of a box grater to grate the potatoes into a large bowl.
  3. Grab a small handful of grated potato and firmly squeeze out excess moisture over the sink. Repeat until all the potato pulp is squeezed.
  4. Return the squeezed potatoes to the bowl.
  5. Add 1/2 medium yellow onion, finely chopped (or 1 teaspoon onion powder), and 1/4 cup of finely chopped fresh bell pepper (any color).
  6. Add 2 large eggs and mix well to combine.
  7. If the mixture seems too dry, add 1 extra egg yolk.
  8. The mixture should have a creamy consistency, similar to coleslaw, but not overly wet.
  9. Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  10. Once the oil is hot (but not smoking), drop heaping spoonfuls of the potato mixture into the skillet, flattening each latke slightly with a spoon.
  11. Cook until golden brown and crispy on the bottom, about 3-4 minutes.
  12. Carefully flip the latkes and cook the other side until golden brown and crispy, another 3-4 minutes.
  13. Adjust the heat as needed to prevent the oil from smoking. Add more oil if necessary.
  14. Remove the latkes from the skillet and drain on paper towels.
  15. Season generously with salt to taste. (Optional: Add 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin and 1/4 teaspoon ground coriander per batch for a spicy kick).
  16. Serve immediately with your favorite toppings, such as sour cream, applesauce, or plain yogurt.
  17. For best results, do not reuse the oil for a second batch.
