Ok you read my mind. I just happened to see this. Now I am going to have to try and make these since I am Polish and from Milwaukee which I think is the home of the Friday Fish Fry.

I've not had a (read any) good latke since I left Sioux City back in the early 70's...

Fish on Friday is an old Catholic thing.

Re: Potato pancakes

I like to add some shredded leeks or green onions... Stir in a touch (1/4 tsp) of ground Tumeric; adds nice color to the oil and pancakes.

Re: Potato pancakes

The wife's recipe.

You need to grate the potatoes and then squeeze all the water out, add the onions to the potatoes and stir in egg and salt.

1 pound potatoes
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
1 large egg, lightly beaten
1/2 teaspoon salt

Fry them in a little olive oil and make more than you think anybody could possibly eat. Yukon Gold potatoes make some really outstanding laktes. :D
