Cookin’ In the Kitchen: Potato Latkes for Thanksgivukkah

This year, for the first time in any of our lifetimes, Thanksgiving and the first night of Channukah occur on the same day, making Thursday, November 28, 2013 . . . Thanksgivukkah! According to our sources, this won’t occur for another 70,000 years! So, in the week before this MAJOR holiday, we thought we’d share a simple recipe for one our favorite Jewish dishes that would be perfect for any Thanksgivukkah table: Potato Latkes.

Use a serving spoon to drop about 2 tbsp. (doesn’t have to be exact) of the mixture into the skillet. Use the spoon to shape the mixture into a circle about 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick. Do not overcrowd the skillet, as it will cause the temperature of the oil to drop. Brown for about 2-4 minutes, then use a spatula to turn. Brown other side for another 2-4 minutes, then use spatula to remove from pan and place on a layer of paper towels to drain.
