Potato Latkes (TBT)

My son choose (and photographed) tonight's throwback meal.  He loves these latkes.  I was at a benefit at the Ormond Wine Co for breast cancer research. They made chicken fingers to go with it.  So, just a short post today.  Mostly for my personal information and to share what we loved so much we had to have again. 




Potato Latkes

Our Note: double everything but the egg, use  only 4 of them.  otherwise it is too soggy.

2 Cup potatoes Peeled And Shredded (4 cups)
1 Tbl onion Grated (2 Tbsp)
3 eggs beaten (4)
2 Tbl flour (4 tbsp.)
1 1/2 Tsp Salt (3 tsp)
1/2 Cup oil for frying

1.Place the potatoes in a cheesecloth and wring, extracting as much
moisture as possible.
J2.In a medium bowl stir the potatoes, onion, eggs, flour and salt
together.
3.In a large heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat, heat the oil
until hot. Place large spoonfuls of the potato mixture into the hot oil,
pressing down on them to form 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick patties. Brown on
one side, turn and brown on the other. Let drain on paper towels. Serve
hot!
