MELISSA CLARK'S FAVORITE HEIRLOOM LATKES



Melissa Clark's Favorite Heirloom Latkes image

This recipe is from Melissa Clark's new cookbook, "In the Kitchen With A Good Appetite." Don't make the potato batter ahead (not even grating the potatoes). It's better to fry the latkes ahead and keep them warm in a 200 F oven than to have the batter sit and turn brown while it waits. ave everything measured out before your guests arrive, then grate, mix and fry all at once. Makes 16 to 20 latkes. NOTE: This recipe can easily be doubled, tripled...

Time 30m

Yield 16-20 latkes

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 large russet potatoes, scrubbed and cut lengthwise into quarters (about 1 pound)
1 large onion, peeled and cut into quarters (8 ounces)
2 large eggs
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
2 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
chicken fat or duck fat, for frying

Steps:

  • Using a food processor with a coarse grating disc, grate the potatoes and onion. Transfer the mixture to a clean dishtowel and squeeze and wring out as much of the liquid as possible.
  • Working quickly, transfer the mixture to a large bowl. Add the four, salt, baking powder, and pepper and mix until the flour is absorbed.
  • In a medium heavy-bottomed pan over medium-high heat, pour in about 1/4 inch of the oil. Once the oil is hot (a drop of batter placed in the pan should sizzle), use a heaping tablespoon to drop the batter into the hot pan, cooking 3 to 4 latkes at one time. Use a spatula to flatten and shape the drops into discs. When the edges of the latkes are brown and crispy, about 5 minutes, flip. Cook until the second side is deeply browned, about another 5 minutes. Transfer the latkes to a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Repeat with the remaining batter.

CLASSIC LATKES

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     side-dish

Time 45m

Yield 12 latkes

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 1/4 pounds russet or Yukon Gold potatoes (about 2 medium), peeled
1 small onion
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 large egg, beaten
1/3 cup matzo meal or all-purpose flour
Vegetable oil or rendered chicken fat, for frying
Applesauce and/or sour cream, for serving

Steps:

  • Grate the potatoes and onion on the large holes of a box grater into a colander set over a bowl. Add 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper, toss well and let stand 5 minutes. Squeeze handfuls of the mixture firmly with your hands to remove as much liquid as possible. Blot dry with paper towels, then transfer to a large bowl.
  • Add the beaten egg and matzo meal or flour to the potato mixture and toss well to combine. Scoop 1/4 cupfuls of the mixture and tightly pack into thin 3- to 4-inch pancakes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined baking sheet.
  • Preheat the oven to 250˚. Heat 1/4 inch vegetable oil or chicken fat in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Working in three batches, fry the latkes until deep golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes per side, reducing the heat as needed if the latkes are browning too quickly. Remove to a rack set on a rimmed baking sheet and sprinkle with salt. Keep warm in the oven while you make the remaining latkes. Serve with applesauce and/or sour cream.
