Latkes


6 large potatoes

4 tbsp. flour
1 large onion
salt and black pepper
Olive oil
1 egg

Finely shred the potatoes and the onion in a food processor.  Drain off any excess liquid.

Mix the grated potatoes and onion, beaten egg, salt and pepper, and flour in a bowl.

Heat a skillet over a medium flame.

Coat the skillet with 1 to 2 tbsp. oil.

Form the potato mixture into small cakes - 2 to 3 tbsp. of potato per cake. Don't make the cakes too big; they're easier to turn when small.

Flatten the cakes slightly with a spatula.

Cook until the latkes are nice and brown on the bottom, then turn and cook the other side.
