Number Of Ingredients 9

Canola oil, for frying
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
6 ounces egg matzo
1 cup cottage cheese, preferably 4 percent
1 large egg, lightly beaten
2 tablespoons snipped chives, plus more for garnish
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
4 slices smoked salmon (about 1/4 pound), for garnish
Horseradish Cream for Matzo Latkes

Steps:

  • Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a small skillet set over medium-high heat. Add onions, and saute until translucent; set aside. Place matzo in a food processor, and process until coarsely ground; you should have 1 1/2 cups crumbs, or meal. Set aside. Place cottage cheese in the clean bowl of the food processor, and blend until smooth.
  • In a medium bowl, combine 1/2 cup matzo crumbs, cottage cheese, sauteed onions, egg, and 2 tablespoons snipped chives; season with salt and pepper. Cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  • Place remaining 1 cup ground matzo in a shallow dish. Evenly divide chilled mixture into quarters, and using your hands, flatten each part into a 4-inch round. Dredge in ground matzo, and set aside on a plate.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a medium nonstick saute pan over medium-high heat. Cook latkes, turning once, until browned on both sides. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Roll salmon slices into rosettes. Serve latkes with a dollop of horseradish cream and a salmon rosette; garnish with chives.

These latkes were amazing! They were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. I served them with applesauce and sour cream, and they were the perfect Hanukkah treat.

I'm not a big fan of latkes, but these were actually pretty good. They were crispy and flavorful, and I liked the addition of herbs and spices.

These latkes were a bit too bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more salt and pepper next time.

These latkes were a little too oily for my taste. I think I'll try using less oil next time.

These latkes were a great way to use up leftover matzo. They were so good, I ate them all in one sitting!

I've never made latkes before, but these were surprisingly easy to make. I used a food processor to shred the matzo, which saved a lot of time. The latkes turned out perfectly crispy and delicious.
