I adapted this to use up 2 small potatoes for a quick snack of 4 latkes. Didn't use cheesecloth, just a strainer and oops, I even forgot the eggs! They stuck together just fine, cooked them in canola oil & served with a little sour cream on the side! GREAT.

These turned out great. To save time, I bought the already shredded "Simply Potatoes" in the refrigerator section of the grocery store.

I was craving these after getting an email for sweet potato latkes. I whipped up a batch just now and ate too many of them. I played with the recipe a bit. I added extra onion, shredded zucchini, and some seasoned panko bread crumbs. They turned out just as I had hoped. Mmmm.

Mmm these are awesome! I grated the potato so that they were the same consistency as the onion- made for a very tasty latke! I used olive oil instead on peanut- soo good! =)

Came out excellent! We put a little more onion in as 1tbsp simply didn't seem like enough for our personal taste. Great job :)

Whenever I have extra potatoes, I make this dish. it goes with EVERYTHING! Add a little extra flour if you want to make it more bread-like. I even use them n place of naan!

I really enjoyed makeing these. They were easy and simple. And my parents loved them! But my potatoes did start to turn slightly brown but I think I figured out the way to keep them from getting brown. I am off to make some more...

These were great and so easy to make. Will definitely make them again. I used dried onion flakes because I was too lazy to slice fresh onion and it was fine, just FYI.

These turned out great. I did use veggie oil, less salt and more onion. Thanks for posting. I will add these to my rotation.

After making a ton of latkes, I've noticed a few things. 1. Don't be too over zealous on draining out the liquid. The second time around I kept trying to keep the potatoes dry and you really need a good balance between liquid and dry amounts or else your latkes will not stay together. 2. Don't squash them out too thin. It seems like 1/2inch (maybe slightly less) is the perfect height to squash them to. Any less and you will be having a hard time flipping them. 3. If you are being stingy on the oil, make sure the oil is at bare minimum covering a millimeter layer on the bottom or they will not brown well! 4. 1 egg per 2 cups is PLENTY to keep your latkes together. So heed the other reviewers on that advice! 5. If you like your latkes a bit more seasoned, try different things like adding garlic (or garlic powder) or some curry seasoning. I wouldn't suggest frying it in garlic olive oil. The garlic was overwhelming and I like garlic! 6. Last but not least, it works well if you substitute whole wheat flour or matzo meal instead of the all-purpose. Although I might add that I found myself using a bit more than called for with the all-purpose.

These were lovely! My first attempt at latkes so I think that, with time, I'll really be able to perfect the timing on them.

These were good; however, when I made the recipe exactly as written, I found it to be too much egg, too much salt, not enough taste, and too greasy. I found that the recipe tasted better when I used 1 bag of Simply Potatoes Shredded, 4 eggs, 2 tsp salt, 1/4 cup onion, and only added oil on a as needed basis. Cooked on a griddle on med-low.

My daughter and I had a Latkes cook-off and this recipe brought me in on top. My husband uses this same recipe but grates the potatoes, where I prefer to shred. Both are great...but mine are better ;)

These were phenom! I had been looking for a latke recipe similar to this. I served mine with sour cream and applesauce on the side, I think they went best with the apple sauce.
