Cooking Preparation of the Recipe:

4 Potatoes
1 md Onion
1 Egg
2 tb Matzoh meal
1/2 ts Salt
1/8 ts Pepper, white
1/4 c Oil

add more potatoes for additional people keeping the 4:1 ratio.
Description: Peel potatoes and place in cold water until ready to
prepare latkes. Starting with onions, alternately grate some onions
on large holes of grater and some potatoes on smallest holes. This
will keep potato mixture from blackening. (Or use food processor.
The steel blade produces a smooth textured latke and the grating disk
a crunchy one.) Press out as much liquid as possible and reserve
starchy sediment at bottom of bowl. Return sediment to mixture, but
not liquid. Blend potatoes with eggs, matzoh meal, salt, and white
pepper. Heat 1" of oil in frying pan. Drop about 1 tb mixture for
each latke into skillet and fry, turning once. When golden and crisp
on each side, drain on paper towels. Serve with yogurt, sour cream,
sugar, or applesauce.
