Description

Ingredients

• 2 large russet potatoes, peeled and shredded
• 1/2 cup finely chopped yellow onion (about 1/2 medium)
• 1/2 cup finely chopped green bell pepper
• 1 large Egglands Best egg
• 1 small clove garlic, minced
• 1 1/2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons Old Bay seasoning
• 1/2 teaspoon celery seed
• 1/4 teaspoon sweet paprika
• 1/8 teaspoon ground mustard
• 1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
• vegetable or canola oil, for frying
• sour cream and/or applesauce, for serving
• chopped chives, as garnish (optional)

Directions

• In a medium bowl, combine the shredded potatoes with the onion, bell pepper, egg and garlic.  In a small bowl, combine the flour, Old Bay, celery seed, paprika, mustard and pepper.  Sprinkle the seasoning into the potato mixture and stir to combine.  Transfer the mixture to a fine mesh strainer and set over a bowl to drain out some of the moisture. Generously coat the bottom of a 12-inch skillet with oil (3 tablespoons or more).  Set over medium-high heat.  When the oil is shimmering, use a 1/4-cup measure to portion out the mixture into the pan, making sure the latkes dont touch each other.  You should be able to cook three at a time.  Flatten slightly with the back of the measuring cup or a spatula. Fry the latkes until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes per side, adding fresh oil to the pan between batches as needed Transfer the latkes to a paper-towel-lined plate to drain.  Serve immediately with sour cream and/or applesauce.  Sprinkle chives on top, if desired.
