Latkes With Chutzpah - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
2 large eggs
1 egg yolk
2 small onions, grated
1/4 cup parsley, minced fine
2 tablespoons flour
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
4 medium potatoes, shredded
1/3 cup chicken fat
salt and pepper
Preparation
-
Beat the eggs and additional yolk.
To the beaten eggs, add remaining ingredients, except chicken fat.
Shred the potatoes, just before adding them; it will look very peculiar.
Season well.
Heat the fat in a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat (or use an electric frying pan set at 400 degrees).
Using a large spoon, drop the potato mixture into the hot fat, creating mounds approximately 3 inches in diameter; flatten with the \"turner\" Occasionally, press the latke into the fat so that it will brown evenly.
Turn carefully when the underside is brown and crusty; brown the second side.
Remove from the pan and drain on paper towels.
Keep warm in a 350 deg. oven, in a single layer, for no more than 20 minutes.
Serve piping hot with applesauce.
