LATKES
Originating in eastern Europe, latkes (potato pancakes) have been a staple
of the Jewish diet for many years. Eaten especially during the festivals of
Hanukah and Passover, these light and scrumptious treats continue to be a
favorite on the Israeli menu.
3-4 medium potatoes
2-3 tbs. of flour (or Matzo meal on Passover)
1 egg
cooking oil
salt and pepper
1 small onion (optional)
apple sauce (optional)
sour cream (optional)
Grate potatoes. Mix in egg, flour, salt and pepper. Grated onion may be
added for flavor. Form into patties and fry until brown on both sides
(about 2 minutes for each side). Serve with apple sauce or sour cream.
