Quick And Easy Potato Latke With Dill Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• 1. Place potatoes, egg whites and onion in food processor. In a small bowl whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and pepper. Add to food processor and pulse using the metal blade, until potatoes and onions are chopped fine.
• 2. Coat a large nonstick skillet with canola oil cooking spray. Add the canola oil and heat.
• 3. Spoon teaspoons of the potato mixture into the hot pan. Fry until golden brown, turning once. Drain on paper towel or a large brown paper bag. Keep warm on a baking sheet in a 200-degree oven.
• 4. Repeat with remaining potato mixture.
• 5. SAUCE: Combine all ingredients into a bowl and mix well. To serve spoon sauce into a bowl. Surround with warm latkes and garnish with sprig of fresh dill; serve immediately.
• 6. My grandmother also had fresh applesauce for us children. Most of us weren't crazy about sour cream based sauces back in the 50's and 60's. She would make these potato pancakes for a Sunday night supper as we had a huge meal at lunch on Sunday.
• 7. For larger latkes, spoon a scant 1/4 cup of potato mixture into hot oil, flattening with the back of the spoon. Proceed as above.
• 8. Latkes may be placed on baking sheets and flash-frozen, and stored in zip top bags. To serve, reheat in a preheated 425-degree oven for 3-5 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400 degrees, pierce potatoes with a fork and place directly on rack. Bake for 1 hour or until a knife easily pierces potatoes. Meanwhile, sauté shallots in 1 tablespoon or so of coconut oil until tender. Add dill and parsley and set aside.
• Peel potatoes, cut in several pieces and put in a medium bowl; use a potato masher or ricer to break them up. Mix in egg, shallots and herbs, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Refrigerate for 2 hours or up to overnight.
• Taking about 1/2 cup of filling at a time, form 10 patties about 1/4-inch thick and 3 inches in diameter. Pour bread crumbs into a wide bowl or plate, and coat the latkes in the crumbs on both sides.
• Heat a nonstick frying pan and add a thin film of oil, about 1/8-inch deep. When hot, slide in pancakes and cook over medium heat for about 3 to 5 minutes on one side, pressing down to gently flatten. Flip latkes and cook for 3 to 5 more minutes, or until crisp and deeply golden. You can make them in advance, placing parchment paper between each layer of patties and reheating in a 350-degree oven for about 10 minutes or until heated through.

Steps:

• Coarsley grate the potatoes and onion into a large bowl, or use a food processor with a coarse grating blade. Leave the mixture to rest for about 15 mins so the liquid releases from the onions and potatoes. Carefully drain off the liquid for about 30 mins until the mixture is dry, then put in a cheese cloth and squeeze out the remaining liquid.
• Add the eggs, flour, 1 tsp sea salt and pepper, and mix well. Pour the oil into the pan so that it is 2-3cm deep. Set over a medium heat for a few minutes until it ripples.
• Carefully spoon in the mixture to the size you want - 2 tbsp for large latkes or 1 tbsp for small. Fry them in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan, and cook on each side until browned for 2 mins. Remove to a plate lined with kitchen paper, then season with a sprinkling of salt. Serve with the soured cream and smoked salmon, finished with a sprinkling of chives, or just apple sauce - both are traditional.

Steps:

• Place the potatoes in a cheesecloth and wring, extracting as much moisture as possible.
• In a medium bowl stir the potatoes, onion, eggs, flour and salt together.
• In a large heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat, heat the oil until hot. Place large spoonfuls of the potato mixture into the hot oil, pressing down on them to form 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick patties. Brown on one side, turn and brown on the other. Let drain on paper towels. Serve hot!
