     Title: Classic Potato Latkes
Categories: Potatoes, Vegetables
     Yield: 36 servings

     2 lg Russet potatoes; scrubbed,
          - quartered lengthwise
     1 lg Onion; peeled, quartered
     2 lg Eggs
   1/2 c  A-P flour
     1 ts Salt; more for sprinkling
     1 ts Baking powder
   1/2 ts Fresh ground black pepper
          - oil; for frying

 Using a food processor with a coarse grating disc, grate
 the potatoes and onion. Transfer the mixture to a clean
 dishtowel and squeeze and wring out as much of the
 liquid as possible.

 Working quickly, transfer the mixture to a large bowl.
 Add the eggs, flour, salt, baking powder and pepper, and
 mix until the flour is absorbed.

 In a medium heavy-bottomed pan over medium-high heat,
 pour in about 4 inch of the oil. Once the oil is hot (a
 drop of batter placed in the pan should sizzle), use a
 heaping tablespoon to drop the batter into the hot pan,
 cooking in batches. Use a spatula to flatten and shape
 the drops into discs. When the edges of the latkes are
 brown and crispy, about 5 minutes, flip. Cook until the
 second side is deeply browned, about another 5 minutes.
 Transfer the latkes to a paper towel-lined plate to
 drain and sprinkle with salt while still warm. Repeat
 with the remaining batter.
