Hanukkah is a time to celebrate, and what could be better than delicious food? Latte is a classic Hanukkah dish, aromatic and crunchy. Lattes, also known as hash browns, are made from mashed potatoes, onions, eggs and flour, and are traditionally cooked in oil. They are often served with sour cream and apples. In this article, we’ll share a recipe for making a Hanukkah latte that your family will love.
Efrata:
4 large potatoes, boiled and diced.
1 onion, chopped
2 eggs, beat lightly.
2 tablespoons of flour
1 teaspoon of salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Cooking oil for frying
Sour cream and applesauce for serving.
Instructions:
Cut potatoes and onions on a grater or food processor. Remove as much liquid as possible from the mashed potatoes and onions.
In a large bowl, combine diced potatoes, onion, eggs, flour, salt and pepper. Mix well.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add enough vegetable oil to cover the bottom of the skillet.
Drop tablespoons of the potato mixture into the pan and use a smooth spatula. Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side or until the latkes are crispy and brown.
Remove the latex from the pan and place them on a plate covered with a paper towel to drain the excess oil.
Repeat this process until all the potato mixture has been used.
Serve hot with sour cream and applesauce.
Tips for making the perfect latte:
Use a food processor or grater to grate the potatoes and onions. Adding as much water as possible will help ensure that the latex is flexible and not cold.
Make sure you use enough oil to cover the bottom of the pan. This will help the latex cook properly and become crispy.
Do not overfill the pan. If necessary, cook the latex in batches to ensure it cooks well.
For the best flavor and texture, serve latkes immediately after cooking.
Differences:
Although the traditional latke is made with potatoes, there are many options you can try mixing up.
Sweet Potato Latte: For a sweeter flavor, replace half the potatoes with sweet potato flour.
Zucchini Latte: Substitute mashed potatoes for zucchini for an easy and healthy option.
Cheese Latte: Add shredded cheese to your potato mixture for a twist on the traditional latte.
Herbs: Add herbs such as parsley or dill to the potato mixture.
