Debbie's Latkes

It's almost Chanukah time (when we traditionally make latkes), so I suppose I can give you the recipe again.......

4 large old potatoes
1 small onion
1 small egg
a little bread crumbs
salt and pepper to taste

Grate everything and mix well. Don't leave the mixture, or it'll turn brown.

If making latkes, heat up fry pan with plenty of oil in the bottom.
Drop in tablespoon fulls of mixture, flatten a little and fry till golden brown on both sides.

If making the bake, put oil in the bottom of a low sided baking dish (you need quite a bit of oil) and heat on 220 while you're preparing mixture. When oil is really hot, pour mixture in being careful not to splatter. Flatten it off and give a light sprinkle/spray with oil on the top.

Cook for around an hour or a little more.

I also make this same bake using grated veges such as potato, zucchini, pumpkin etc and add in spinach, mushrooms, corn....what ever.
