Preparation

Step 1

In a mixing bowl combine eggs, garlic, and salt. Using a box grater, finely shred potatoes. Add to egg mixture. Stir to combine.

Scoop out potato mixture 1/3 cup at a time. Using your hands, squeeze mixture over a separate bowl to remove excess liquid. Shape into 2 1/2-inch patties.

In a 12-inch skillet heat oil over medium-high heat. Using a spatula, slide patties into pan. Cook about 4 minutes or until golden brown, turning once. Repeat with remaining mixture and transfer to paper towels, drain. Keep warm in a 200°F oven.

Serve latkes with crème fraîche and fresh snipped dill or with applesauce, if desired.
