Recipe By Norene Gilletz
Tradition! You really can’t go wrong with classic potato latkes. I’ve added four unique toppings to serve alongside, each with its own flavor. Make a different topping every night and delight your guests!
In addition you can prepare the latkes in 3 different ways, click here to see how.
Parve
Yields 2 dozen latkes
Preheat oven to 250°F (125°C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with Gefen Easy Baking Parchment Paper.
In a food processor fitted with the shredding disk, shred potatoes and onion, using medium pressure. Transfer vegetables to a large colander set in the sink or over a large bowl; press firmly to drain excess liquid.
Place drained veggies into a large bowl. Add eggs, potato starch, baking powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Working in batches, drop large spoonfuls of batter into hot oil to form pancakes, flattening them slightly with the back of the spoon. Do not crowd the skillet. Fry for three to four minutes per side, or until crisp and golden.
Drain well on paper towels. Transfer to prepared baking sheet; place into oven to keep warm.
Latkes freeze well.

Top the latkes. Add pomegranate seeds (if using parsley) or smoked salmon (if using dill).
