These are delicious served plain with a bit of salt sprinkled on them or traditionally with apple sauce or sour cream. Serving size is approximate. You may grate potatoes if you like, but we prefer them chopped.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my latkes turned out mushy. I think I might have added too much oil.

These latkes were a little too salty for my taste. I think I would use less salt next time.

These latkes were a bit too thick for my taste. I think I would grate the potatoes finer next time.

I've made potato latkes many times before, but this recipe is by far the best. The latkes were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, and they had the perfect amount of flavor.
