What is the best potato latke recipe for a large group?

POTATO LATKES

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

2 pounds potatoes

2 large eggs

Salt

Oil for frying

Peel and finely grate the potatoes. Put them straight into cold

water, then

drain and squeeze them as dry as you can by pressing them with your

hands

in a colander. This is to remove the starchy liquid, which could make

the

latkes soggy.

Beat the eggs lightly with salt, add to the potatoes, and stir well.

Film

the bottom of a frying pan with oil and heat. Take serving-spoonfuls,

or as

much as 1/4 cup, of the mixture, and drop into the hot oil. Flatten a

little, and lower the heat so that the fritters cook through evenly.

When

one side is brown, turn over and brown the other. Lift out and serve

very

hot.

Yield: 6 serving
