Instructions

  • Peel potatoes and onion.
  • Grate potatoes and onion into a large bowl.
  • Crack eggs into a glass. Check to make sure
    there are no blood spots!
  • Add egg, salt and pepper to the potato and
    onion mixture, and use a wooden spoon to
    mix it up!
  • Ask your adult assistant to help turn on
    the stove.
  • Pour enough oil into the frying pan to cover
    the bottom of the pan.
  • Use a large spoon to carefully place spoonfuls
    of batter into the pan. Be careful - the oil is
    hot!
  • Let the latkes fry for about 5 minutes on a
    medium flame.
  • Ask your adult assistant to help turn the latkes
    over using a spatula. Let the latkes fry for a
    few more minutes, till they’re nice and brown
    on both sides.
  • Ask your adult assistant to help take out the
    latkes and place them on a plate to cool.
  • Serve with applesauce and enjoy! Don’t forget
    to make a blessing!

    BLESSING: Baruch Atoh Ado-nai Elo-heinu Melech Ha-olam Borei P’ri Ha’adoma.

matzah meal
Thanks Helaine! You can certainly include matzah meal but it is not necessary, the latkes stay together nicely without.
