Total time 28 mins

Cooking method: Ninja Foodi , Traditional

Difficulty: beginner

Servings: 4

Ingredients

4 large potatoes (floury type like Russet or Bintje)
1 medium onion
2 eggs
2 tbsp rice flour or cornstarch (cornstarch)
1 tsp of salt
1/2 tsp pepper
Vegetable oil (for frying)

Preparation

1
Preparation of ingredients: Peel the potatoes and grate them finely using a grater or food processor.
2
Also slice the onion finely. Place the potatoes and onion in a clean tea towel, then press firmly to extract as much water as possible. This step is essential to obtain very crispy latkes.
3
Prepare the dough: In a large bowl, mix the drained potatoes and onion with the eggs, rice flour (or cornstarch), salt and pepper. Mix well to obtain a homogeneous paste.
4
Cooking the latkes: Heat a generous amount of oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
5
Drop spoonfuls of dough into the hot oil and flatten them slightly with the back of the spoon to form patties. Cook each latke for about 3 to 4 minutes on each side, until nicely browned and crispy.
6
Drain them on absorbent paper to remove excess oil.
7
Serving: Serve the latkes hot, accompanied by applesauce, crème fraîche or a yogurt sauce for a contrast of flavors.

Note

You can also cook the laktes in your airfryer by brushing them with oil beforehand: in Ninja foodi, on airfry 200 degrees, for 15-20 minutes, turning them halfway through cooking.
