POLISH PLATSKI

My mum suggested that we make these, so I searched the Internet for recipes. I found two, but was disappointed with both: onion powder? Half a sweet potato? No sour cream? How authentic is that? (links below) So we decided to make up our own recipe, a kind of combination of both of those. It's easy to make, vegetarian and delicious, so we thought you might like it too. http://www.polish-recipes.com/recipes.php/21/Polish-Platski---Potato-Pancakes/Sides/ http://www.bbc.co.uk/food/recipes/platski_83346

GRANDMA'S PLACEK

Grandma's Placek image

Placek (plah-sek) in Polish just means cake, but placek around back home (and probably other cities with a high Polish population) refers to a sweet yeast bread topped with sugary crumble, with golden raisins served on Easter. You hardly see placek, which is a shame! This bread can also be wrapped well and frozen, then taken out as necessary for eating and giving away, meaning it can be made ahead of time! Placek is the kind of bread that begs to be spread with butter - it's not like a moist sour cream coffee cake. It has a drier crumb, making it an even better partner to coffee or tea.

Tips:

Use a good quality potato. Russet potatoes are the best choice for latkes, as they have a high starch content that helps them to hold their shape.
Grate the potatoes finely. This will help them to cook evenly and prevent them from becoming too mushy.
Squeeze out as much liquid as possible from the potatoes. This will help to prevent the latkes from becoming greasy.
Use a well-seasoned skillet. A cast iron skillet is ideal, but any non-stick skillet will work.
Heat the oil over medium-high heat. This will help to create a crispy crust on the latkes.
Do not overcrowd the skillet. Cook the latkes in batches, if necessary, to prevent them from sticking together.
Flip the latkes carefully. Use a spatula to gently flip the latkes over, to prevent them from breaking.
Serve the latkes hot. Latkes are best served immediately, while they are still crispy.

Conclusion:

Latkes are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They are also a popular Hanukkah dish. With a few simple tips, you can make perfect latkes every time. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy meal, give latkes a try!
