Perfectly Crispy Potato Latkes Every Time
Ingredients
  • 4 potatoes, peeled and cubed
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour, or as needed
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 cup canola oil, or as needed
Instructions
1
Combine 1/4 of the potatoes, onion, eggs, salt, flour, and baking powder in a food processor bowl; process repeatedly until the vegetables are finely minced. Add the remaining potatoes and continue processing until all potatoes have been finely chopped and the mixture is well incorporated.
2
Heat canola oil in a skillet over medium heat. Use a spoon to scoop up about 1/3 cup of the potato mixture at a time and transfer it to the skillet. Cook the latkes until they are golden brown and crispy on the bottom, taking about 2 to 3 minutes. Flip them over and cook the other side until they are also golden brown, taking about 2 to 3 minutes longer.
3
Continue this process with the remaining potato mixture, replenishing the oil as needed. Serve the latkes hot immediately.
