Egg Yolk Stuffed Latkes Recipes

Steps:

• Place eggs in a large pot and cover with cool water. Bring to a boil and cook, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes. Transfer eggs to a bowl of cold water using tongs. Peel.
• Cut eggs in half. Slice a small piece off bottoms so halves don't tip over. Place yolks in a mixing bowl. Add mayonnaise, mustard, Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper. Mix until creamy, 1 or 2 minutes.
• Spoon yolk mixture into egg white halves. Garnish with a dot of ketchup on top. Refrigerate about 20 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Grate the potatoes and onion on the large holes of a box grater into a colander set over a bowl. Add 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper, toss well and let stand 5 minutes. Squeeze handfuls of the mixture firmly with your hands to remove as much liquid as possible. Blot dry with paper towels, then transfer to a large bowl.
• Add the beaten egg and matzo meal or flour to the potato mixture and toss well to combine. Scoop 1/4 cupfuls of the mixture and tightly pack into thin 3- to 4-inch pancakes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined baking sheet.
• Preheat the oven to 250˚. Heat 1/4 inch vegetable oil or chicken fat in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Working in three batches, fry the latkes until deep golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes per side, reducing the heat as needed if the latkes are browning too quickly. Remove to a rack set on a rimmed baking sheet and sprinkle with salt. Keep warm in the oven while you make the remaining latkes. Serve with applesauce and/or sour cream.

Steps:

• Fill a large heavy-bottomed skillet fitted with a deep-fry thermometer with 1/2 inch oil. Heat over medium heat to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with paper towels and place a cooling rack on top.
• Combine the potatoes, egg, flour, scallions, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a large bowl until the mixture holds together when squeezed in the palm of your hand.
• Working in batches, scoop and press the potato mixture into a 1/4 cup measuring cup, then tap it out into your hand. Gently flatten the mixture into a patty, about 1/2 inch thick.
• Carefully add the latkes to the skillet and fry until deeply golden brown on the edges, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip and fry until deeply golden brown on the edges, about 3 minutes. Drain on the prepared cooling rack. Sprinkle with more salt if desired. Repeat with remaining latkes being sure to return the added oil to 350 degrees F temperature between batches. Serve warm, topped with sour cream and applesauce.

Steps:

• For the cookies: cream together the butter and sugar with a handheld mixer until fluffy in a bowl. In a separate bowl, beat egg yolks, then beat in the extracts and cinnamon. Add the beaten egg yolk mixture to the creamed butter and sugar and blend well. Whisk together the flour, baking soda, cocoa powder and cream of tartar. Add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mix until well blended. Take a spoonful into your palm and form into 1-inch balls. Roll them in sugar and place on a greased cookie sheet. Slightly flatten before placing in the preheated oven. Bake at 350 degrees F until firm and slightly golden at the edges, 12 to 15 minutes.
• For the topping: whisk together the sugar, cocoa, chili powder and cinnamon for the topping.
• Dust cookies with topping while still warm.
