And I am making these very delicious but decidedly “ungourmet” latkes.

10 potatoes, peeled and cut into chunks
1 onion, peeled and cut into chunks
4 eggs
¼ cup flour
½ teaspoon pepper
1-1/2 teaspoons salt
Oil for frying

In a food processor, using the grater blade, grate the potatoes and onions.  Pour into a strainer and strain about the extra liquid.  In a large bowl, mix the potato-onion mixture with the eggs, flour, salt and pepper.  Heat oil in a large frying pan.  When oil is hot, place large spoonfuls of the potato mixture in the pan and flatten slightly.  Cook until crispy (3 to 5 minutes per side) and drain on paper towels.  Can be frozen. Serve with homemade applesauce or sour cream.
