The best receipt of potatoes
Celebrate the Film Festival this year with delicious, crispy and homemade appletes!
Whether you are a compote team or team cream, there's one thing we can all agree on: Lestkes are one of the most favored foods to enjoy during the Hanukkah season. They are salted, they are crispy and they are absolutely delicious when topped with sour cream. Or compleauce. Or both!
To celebrate, I decided to prepare a potato recipe lake myself.
Why do we mangons Letkés on Hanukkah?
The beautiful storyHanaukkah is one that starts with the oil. It seems strange, but the miracle of light happened because of a night of burning oil from the oil in the temple to not one, not two, but eight nights. So while the lake potato is traditional cuisine served on Hanukkah, fryingPotato The pancake in oil is the real reason to celebrate Hanukkah with Letkés.
So if you celebrate Hanukkah this year or if you participate in this cultural tradition this holiday season, here's how the potato at home.
Potato Recipe Letkés
Done 16 servings
Ingredients
Potatoes 2 lbs (about 4 potatoes)
1/2 onion, shredded
2 large eggs (3 medium eggs)
2 c. In bread crumbs
1/2 c.
1/4 c.
Canola oil
Applesauce
Fresh cream
How to do it
Cut the potatoes in half to shred
After rinsing the potatoes, cut them in half length. Cut them in half to allow the potatoes through aculinary robot. Do not peel the potatoes! The skin is a good key to Letkés added. If you do not have food processor you canBuy a pocket rattle and shred by hand.
Repeat the same step for onion 1/2.
Press the potatoes shredded
using astamen, Press the extra fluid in the grated potatoes in a smaller bowl. Potatoes may still have some liquid after, so good. Just try to get you out as much as you can. If you do not have cheese, layer a few paper towels instead.
At the bottom of the bowl with the liquid, you will notice a white mud that sticks to the bottom. This is the starch of the potato, you will use! So do not arise again.
Mixing ingredients with a potato starch
Mix the shredded potatoes, onions,eggs, Breadcrumbs, salt and pepper. Remove the liquid in the smaller bowl and away from the starch of the potato with a rubber spatula, by adding the largest bowl with all ingredients. I find it easier to mix Letkés with my hands, make sure to wash your hands first!
I used three eggs in this picture since I had the means eggs in the refrigerator. However, if you have large eggs, you'll only need two.
Fry in canola oil
Heat acast iron medium-low fire. After 3 minutes whenThe stove is fully heatedAdd the oil. Wait a few more minutes until the oil is hot.
When it is ready, stimulate a part of the lake mixture (about 1/4 cup per serving) in your hand. Form patties. I found it easier to train over the sink, suppressing any excess moisture before adding the lake to the pan.
Cook each latke for about 5 minutes per side, or until they are crisp and golden brown. Yes, it requires patience, take your time. Turn the heat that will burn and they will not be as delicious! Once they are fully cooked, remove to a plate lined with a paper towel.
Serve with sour cream and applesauce
Traditional fillings are lesches sour cream and applesauce. While some are of sour cream team or Appleauce team, I'm a big fan of mixing the two together!
The Letkés are best when served hot, so if you can, the serve immediately.
