Kay Dee's Recipe for Potato Latkes

Place the potatoes and onion into a bowl and stir in eggs salt and flour as needed to make the mixture hold together. With wet hands scoop up about 1/3 cup of the mixture per patty and form into flat round or oval shapes.

Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat until it shimmers and gently place the patties into the hot oil. Fry until the bottoms are golden brown and crisp 5 to 8 minutes then flip with a spatula and fry the other side until golden.

Line a colander or strainer with 2 paper towels and drain the cooked latkes in the colander. Serve hot.
