Solomon family Latkes

Preparation Time: 10 minutes
Cooking Time: 20 minutes
Serves: 1

Ingredients

1-1/2 lbs. Idaho potatoes
1 yellow onion
1 egg, beaten
2 Tbsps. all purpose flour
1 tsp. coarse (Kosher) salt, or as needed
1/2 tsp. pepper, or as needed
2 cups vegetable oil, or as needed

Instructions

Peel and grate the potatoes. Grate the onions. Beat the egg and add the onions and seasoning and the flour to the beaten egg. Mix in the grated potatoes.
Dissolve vitamin C tablet in 2-3 Tbsp of water, and add that to the potato mixture to prevent browning. Heat a few tablespoons of oil in a skillet. Once the oil is hot, scoop out 1-2 Tbsp of the potato mixture, and fry in the oil until the bottom starts to brown (2-3 min). Flip the latke over and fry for another 2-3 min. Take out the latke and drain on a paper towel. Serve immediately with apple sauce or sour cream.
Note: The recipe makes 10-12 pancakes. They're served with Sour Cream or Applesauce as a topping.
