Ingredients
Instructions
Grate potatoes and onion using the largest holes of your box grater or a food processor attachment.
Place grated mixture on a lint-free kitchen towel and squeeze out excess moisture thoroughly.
Transfer mixture to a large bowl and stir in the lightly beaten egg until evenly combined.
Add flour, salt, baking powder, and black pepper; stir gently until mixed without overmixing.
Heat ¼-inch of vegetable oil in a heavy-bottomed skillet to 350°F (175°C).
Drop 3-4 tablespoons of batter into hot oil, flatten slightly, and fry 3 minutes per side until golden brown.
Drain latkes on paper towels or a wire rack and serve immediately with sour cream or applesauce.
