Sounds yummy, I may need to make some latkes this week. Hearing everyone talk about their latke feasts is making me want some.
My family is not Jewish (Roman Catholic) but my Grandmother used to make what she called potato pancakes, which I now know as Latkes.
My recipe for them, that was never written down by my grandmother, but rather by me so it would be preserved, does not list quantities, but it is similar, except we used baking powder and a tiny bit of flour. Grate some potato and some onion, drain it, add a little milk, some baking powder and just enough flour to make it the consistancy of pancake batter. Fry them in about an inch of oil in the fry pan. Served with sour cream AND applesauce.
