Wild Rice And Potato Latkes Recipes

CHEESE-RICE LATKES

Steps:

• In medium-sized bowl mix together rice, cheese, egg yolks, flour, salt and pepper.
• In separate bowl beat egg whites together with cream of tartar until stiff but not dry. Fold beaten egg whites into rice mixture until completely combined.
• Heat 2 to 3 tablespoons oil over medium-high heat in a large skillet. Spoon batter by rounded tablespoons into the skillet, using the back of the spoon to flatten each pancake. Fry the latkes, turning them once, until they are golden and puffed. Serve hot.

WILD RICE AND POTATO LATKES

Steps:

• Cook rice in 1 1/2 cups water until completely tender, about 1 hour or more. Drain rice in colander and let sit until it is dry to the touch, about 15 minutes.
• Place warm rice in a mixing bowl.
• Using paper towels, squeeze as much moisture as possible from potato, a handful at a time and transfer to the bowl with the rice.
• With a fork, mix in the eggs and chives. Sprinkle with flour and mix. Add salt and pepper to taste.
• Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
• Place rounded tablespoons of the mixture in the pan, pressing each firmly with the back of a fork to make thin, 2-inch pancakes with lacy edges. Space latkes 2 inches apart.
• When lightly browned on the bottom, 2 to 3 minutes, gently turn latkes and brown on the other side, about 2 minutes.
• When done, transfer to a warm plate and keep warm. Repeat with remaining mixture, adding more oil if needed to the pan before adding more pancakes.
• Serve hot.

FAMILY LATKES

Steps:

• Place potatoes in salted water and let sit for about 15 minutes.
• Grate potatoes on a medium or fine setting. Press out liquid; this should produce about 4 cups grated potato.
• Place grated potato in a bowl and stir in flour, onion, salt, and pepper. Fold in eggs.
• Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Heat enough oil in a deep pan to reach 1/4 inch up the sides. Heat over medium-high heat until a drop of batter sizzles. Lower heat to medium.
• Working in batches, drop batter into the hot oil in desired size and flatten into pancakes; brown on both sides, 5 to 7 minutes per side. Transfer to the prepared pans and keep warm in the preheated oven while you fry remaining batter.

CLASSIC POTATO LATKES

Steps:

• Coarsley grate the potatoes and onion into a large bowl, or use a food processor with a coarse grating blade. Leave the mixture to rest for about 15 mins so the liquid releases from the onions and potatoes. Carefully drain off the liquid for about 30 mins until the mixture is dry, then put in a cheese cloth and squeeze out the remaining liquid.
• Add the eggs, flour, 1 tsp sea salt and pepper, and mix well. Pour the oil into the pan so that it is 2-3cm deep. Set over a medium heat for a few minutes until it ripples.
• Carefully spoon in the mixture to the size you want - 2 tbsp for large latkes or 1 tbsp for small. Fry them in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan, and cook on each side until browned for 2 mins. Remove to a plate lined with kitchen paper, then season with a sprinkling of salt. Serve with the soured cream and smoked salmon, finished with a sprinkling of chives, or just apple sauce - both are traditional.

MY GRANDMOTHER'S POTATO LATKES

Steps:

• Peel the potatoes, if your not going to use them right away, put them in a bowl and cover them with cold water.
• Grate the potatoes into a bowl, It really doesn't matter which holes of the grater you use. Larger holes are the only ones that will do the job some people think, since they produce crunchier latkes. Others insist on using medium sized holes for smoother latkes, It's up to you, watch your knuckles though.
• Grate the onion into the same bowl. Of course peel the skin off first.
• Get rid of the liquid that has collected in the bowl.
• Beat the eggs in another bowl and then add to the potato/onion mixture.
• Add the flour, salt and pepper, Mix well.
• Turn oven on to 250°F This is so you can keep the first latkes you fry warm while your cooking the rest.
• Pour enough salad oil into the bottom of a large frying pan so it's about 1/4 inch deep. Heat the oil, and keep it hot at medium to medium high heat. Put a tablespoon of the batter into the oil and press it with a slotted pancake turner to a thin pancake. Do as many as these as the pan will hold. Each latke gets turned once.
• You can tell when they're ready to turn because the edges get brown. You should cook the latkes so they're golden brown and crisp on each side. As they're done, put them in a shallow pan lined with some paper towels and keep them warm in the oven. I serve them with applesauce -- Enjoy!

POTATO LATKES

Steps:

• Peel and coarsely shred the potatoes. (Place in cold water as you work to prevent darkening.) Rinse potatoes and drain well. Pat dry with paper towels.

• In a 12-inch skillet heat 1/2-inch cooking oil over medium-high heat. For each latke, drop 1 rounded tablespoon potato mixture into hot oil, flattening slightly. Fry for 2 to 3 minutes or until edges are crisp. Turn and cook for 2 to 3 minutes more or until golden.
• Drain on paper towels. Cover with foil and keep warm. Repeat frying.
• For make ahead latkes: Prepare, cook and drain latkes. Cover and chill up to 24 hours in the refrigerator. To reheat, arrange on an ungreased baking sheet. Bake, uncovered, in a 400-degree oven for 10 to 12 minutes or until heated through, turning once.

LAURA'S POTATO LATKES RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Peel the potatoes, adding them to a large bowl filled with water as you work to prevent browning.
• Dry the potatoes, then shred on the large holes of a box grater into a large. Shred the onion into the same bowl on the small holes of the box grater.
• Transfer the potato mixture to a nut milk bag or a clean kitchen towel and squeeze tightly over the bowl to wring out any excess liquid. Set the liquid aside to let the starch settle to the bottom of the bowl, then carefully pour off the liquid on top, leaving the potato starch in the bottom of the bowl.
• In a clean large bowl, combine the shredded potatoes and onions, potato starch, 1 egg, salt, and pepper and gently mix to combine. If the mixture seems too dry and crumbly, add another egg. Add 1 tablespoon matzo ball mix and stir to incorporate, adding up to 1 tablespoon more matzo ball mix if the mixture isn't holding together.
• Pour the oil into a large pan to reach a depth of ¼ inch. Heat over medium heat. Using a 2-tablespoon cookie scoop, add the potato mixture to the pan, gently pressing down to the desired thickness. Add another scoop or two of the potato mixture, being careful not to overcrowd the pan. Cook for 3-4 minutes until the edges begin to crisp and the bottom is golden brown. Carefully flip the latkes and cook for another 3-4 minutes, until golden brown on the other side. Transfer to a wire rack and season with salt. Repeat with the remaining latkes.
• Serve with applesauce and sour cream.
• Enjoy!
