    Steps

    1
    Done

    The Best Way to Fry These Are in Tiny Dollops, Dropped from a Spoon (or use Metal Kitchen Tongs and Pick Up Small Clumps of Batter) and Use a Deep Wok. the Cooking Method Is So Important So Follow the Directions Exactly For Perfect Results.

    Done

    Place Potatoes in a Medium Saucepan and Just Cover With Cold Water. Turn Heat to High and Allow to Come to Boil. as Soon as Potatoes Are Boiling, Put a Kitchen Timer on For 10 Minutes. When Timer Rings, Remove Potatoes from Stove and Cover With Cold Water. Drain Immediately, Then Cover Again With Cold Water. Let Sit Five Minutes. Remove Potatoes and Pat Dry.

    Done

    Using a Hand Shredder (best) or Food Processor Fitted With a Medium Disc, Shred Potatoes (with Skins On). the Potatoes Should Be Slightly Softened, but Still Firm Enough to Produce Shreds. If the Peel Separates from the Potato, Discard It. If the Peel Gets Grated in With the Potatoes, It's Fine and Just Incorporate It Into the Mixture. I Like the Hand Grater Best. When use the Processor, use Two Thirds Shredded Then Pulverized Potatoes and One Third Shredded For a Mixture Than Is Bulky but Still Has Shreds. Worth the Trouble.

    Done

    in a Large Bowl, Blend Shredded Potatoes, Grated Onion, Eggs, Flour, Baking Powder, Salt, and Pepper. Place Newspaper on Work Surface (near Frying Area) and Cover With a Few Paper Towels. in a Large Deep Skillet (i Like to Use a Wok), Pour in Enough Vegetable Oil to Fill About Two Thirds. If Using an Electric Fry Pan, Set the Temperature to 350f or 375f (depending on How Fast You Want the Pancakes to Cook). Drop Potato Batter by Teaspoons (for Small Ones) or Soup Spoonfuls in Small Dollops, Flattening Slightly With a Metal Spatula If Desired. use Large Metal Tongs For Dropping and Turning. Brown One Side, Turn Once, and Complete Cooking on Other Side. These Cook Quickly. You're Looking For a Puffy Centre While Retaining Some Crisp Shreds of Potato on Edges.

    Done

    Serve Immediately or Freeze. to Reheat, Place Latkes on a Large Wire Cake Rack on a Cookie Sheet. Warm at 250f Until Crisp. For Freezing Purposes, Fry Them a Little Underdone to Allow For Browning in the Re-Heating Stage.
