Latke

I made latkes last night for dinner and damn were they good. All latkes are potato pancakes but of course I had to add stuff to them.

Ingredients:
2 1/2 lbs potatoes peeled and grated
2 small yellow onions diced
2 cloves garlic finely chopped
1/4 cup bread crumbs
2 eggs
1 cup grated cheddar cheese

Directions:
Combine everything in a bowl and mix well. I used four small frying pans with about 3 Tbs of oil in each pan on medium heat to cook up all four latkes at the same time. You can also use a nonstick griddle. They need to be cooked on each side for about 15 minutes until the outsides are almost black (I like them nice and crispy on the outside). To flip them slide the latke onto a large plate, cover with another plate then slide it back onto the pan carefully and cook another 15 minutes. A little time consuming but oh so yummy and oh so worth the wait.
