Latkes


INGREDIENTS
2 cups peeled and shredded potatoes
3T. green onion(or white)
3 eggs, beaten
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/4c. oil
DIRECTIONS
Place the potatoes in a cheesecloth and wring, extracting as much moisture as possible.
In a medium bowl stir the potatoes, onion, eggs, flour and salt together.
In a large heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat, heat the oil until hot. Place large spoonfuls of the potato mixture into the hot oil, pressing down on them to form 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick patties. Brown on one side, turn and brown on the other. Let drain on paper towels. Serve hot!


These are so good served with sour cream and extra green onions! Or omit the onions in the pancake, and drizzle with syrup. Our Grandpa used to make these all the time..................
