Crispy Golden Potato Latkes
Ingredients
  • 4 large potatoes
  • 1 yellow onion
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ground black pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour, or more as needed
  • 1 cup vegetable oil for frying, or as needed
Instructions
1
Gather and prepare all necessary ingredients.
2
Preheat the oven to a lower temperature, approximately 200 degrees Fahrenheit (95 degrees Celsius).
3
Finely chop potatoes and onions into a large bowl, removing any excess moisture.
4
Combine the egg, salt, and pepper in the bowl with the potatoes and onions.
5
Add a moderate amount of flour to achieve the desired consistency, roughly 2 to 4 tablespoons in total.
6
Heat a substantial amount of oil - about 1/4 inch deep - in the bottom of a heavy skillet over medium-high heat.
7
Create small, rounded balls of batter and gently drop them into the hot oil, flattening them slightly with a spatula to form 1/2-inch thick pancakes.
8
Cook the pancakes, flipping them once, until they achieve a golden brown color.
9
Transfer the cooked pancakes to a plate lined with paper towels to remove excess oil, keeping them warm in the oven until serving.
10
Continue this process until all of the potato mixture has been used.
11
Serve the warm pancakes and enjoy!
