What goes into making a classic latke?

[Jamal_]

Fellow food lovers! I’m planning to make some classic latkes and wondering, what are the must-have ingredients? I know potatoes are key, but what else do I need to ensure they turn out just right? Any and all tips for a latke newbie would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Hey there, fellow food lover! For classic latkes, you’ll need:

• Potatoes
• Onions
• Eggs
• Flour or matzo meal
• Salt
• Pepper
• Oil for frying

Grate the potatoes and onions, mix with beaten eggs, flour, salt, and pepper. Fry them up until crispy and golden brown. Pro tip: squeeze out as much moisture as you can from the potatoes for extra crispy latkes! Enjoy!

Hey there! For classic latkes, you'll need potatoes (obvs), onions (for flavor), eggs (to bind), flour (for crispiness), salt, and pepper. Oh, and don't forget the oil for frying! Thanks a bunch for the tips, can't wait to fry up these bad boys!

Classic latkes are basically crispy potato pancakes - all you need are shredded potatoes, onion, some egg to bind it, and a sprinkle of magic (aka salt and pepper) for frying up golden deliciousness!
