Number Of Ingredients 11

4 large russet potatoes, peeled
1 small white onion, finely grated
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
1/4 cup beer
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon coarse salt
Freshly ground black pepper
Vegetable oil, for frying
Pink Applesauce for Potato Latkes, for serving
Sour cream, for serving
Osetra caviar, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 200 degrees. Grate potatoes in long strips, using smooth strokes to run potatoes across grater into a large bowl of ice water. Using a strainer or slotted spoon, transfer potatoes, reserving liquid, to another large bowl lined with a clean kitchen towel; gently squeeze dry.
  • Set reserved liquid aside for 10 minutes to allow starch to sink to the bottom; carefully pour liquid from the bowl, reserving milky residue (potato starch) and discard. Transfer potatoes back to bowl with potato starch.
  • Add onions to bowl; stir in eggs, beer, flour, salt, and pepper.
  • Line a baking sheet with paper towels; set aside. In a heavy nonstick skillet, heat 1/4-inch of oil. Spoon 1/2 cup of potato mixture per pancake into skillet. Make a few at a time, being careful they don't run into each other.
  • Fry on both sides until golden brown, 4 to 6 minutes. Transfer to prepared baking sheet to drain. Keep warm in oven while preparing the others. Serve hot with applesauce, or sour cream and caviar, if desired.

I used a food processor to shred the potatoes and onions. It made the process much easier and faster.

I added some grated cheese to the batter. The cheese melted and made the latkes extra gooey and delicious.

I made these latkes in a waffle maker instead of a frying pan. They turned out great! The waffle maker gave the latkes a nice crispy texture.

I tried making these latkes with sweet potatoes instead of regular potatoes. They were delicious! The sweet potatoes gave the latkes a nice sweetness and flavor.

These latkes were a bit too bland for my taste. I think I would add more salt and pepper next time. However, they were still crispy and flavorful.

I'm not a fan of potato latkes, but my husband loves them. I made this recipe for him, and he said they were the best latkes he's ever had. He especially liked the crispy edges.

These latkes were a bit too oily for my taste. However, they were still very flavorful. I liked the combination of the potato and onion. I think I would try making them again, but I would use less oil.
