Better Than Mother's Latkes
- 4 medium russet potatoes, cut into chunks
- 1 small onion
- 5 tablespoons potato starch
- 14 cup matzo meal
- 2 eggs
- salt
- fresh black pepper, ground
- oil, for frying
- Finely grate the onion.
- Grate or shred the potatoes by using the pulse button on your food processor (don't make it overly fine as you don't want it to be too liquidy).
- Add remaining ingredients and mix well.
- You will have to experiment with the salt a bit as it varies with the size of the potatoes, so fry one first and make adjustments as needed.
- Fry in hot oil over a medium flame (not high or the interior won't cook well).
- Serve immediately with your favorite accompaniments (sour cream, applesauce or just plain which I think is the best).
- Enjoy!
