Guest guest Posted December 6, 2004 Report Share Posted December 6, 2004 Latkes (potato pancakes) 12 medium potatoes unpeeled 1 1/2 medium onions 1 package silken tofu, firm***see note below 1 1/2 tsps salt 2 tsps baking powder oil Heat oil in a large skillet to fry the latkes. Place potatoes in a large pot of boiling water and cook until almost done (approximately 45 minutes). Drain and place in a colander to cool. Use your food processor shredding disc to shred the potatoes. They will look a bit like mashed potatoes when you're done, but you'll still have some chunks. Discard any large pieces of peel. Put in a large bowl. Depending upon the bowl size of your processor, you may need to do this step several times. Remove the shred disc and mince the onions. Add to the potatoes. Next add the tofu, salt, and baking powder. Mix well. Use a large spoon and spatula to add the latke to the oil. Brown on one side, flip over, brown the other side then remove to a plate covered with paper towels to drain. Enjoy with applesauce or vegan Tofutti sour cream. ***Instead of tofu I frequently use a flour for binder such as soy flour or fava bean flour. It works nicely.*** " I send you love and good dishes --- from my house to yours! " Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
