Traditional Hanukkah Latkas – Potato Pancakes (Parve)
Fried food is traditionally eaten on Hanukkah in commemoration of the oil that miraculously burned for eight days when the Maccabees purified and rededicated the holy Temple in Jerusalem. Fried Potato Pancakes (called Latkes in Yiddish and Levivot in Hebrew) are the hands-down, mouth-open holiday favorite.
INGREDIENTS:
- 5 potatoes
- 2 onions
- 3 eggs
- 2-4 Tbsp. all-purpose flour
- 1 Tbsp. vanilla
- 1 tsp. salt
- 1/4 tsp. pepper
- oil for frying (canola is recommended)
PREPARATION:
1. Peel potatoes. Place in a bowl of cold water so they won’t turn brown.
2. When ready to prepare the latkas, drain the potatoes. Place potatoes and onions in a food processor fitted with a knife blade.
