Ingredients
- 2 large Russet potatoes
- 1 medium Onion
- 1 large Egg
- 2 tablespoons Arrowroot powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.25 cup Coconut oil
Directions
Step 1
Peel the russet potatoes and onion.
Step 2
Grate the potatoes and onion using a box grater or a food processor with a shredding disc.
Step 3
Place the grated potatoes and onion in a clean dish towel or cheesecloth. Gather the ends of the towel and twist to squeeze out as much moisture as possible.
Step 4
Transfer the drained potato and onion mixture to a large mixing bowl.
Step 5
In a small bowl, beat the egg, then add it to the potato mixture.
Step 6
Add the arrowroot powder, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder to the bowl. Mix all ingredients well until combined.
Step 7
Heat coconut oil in a large skillet over medium heat until hot but not smoking.
Step 8
Scoop about 2 tablespoons of the potato mixture for each latke and carefully add it to the skillet. Flatten each scoop slightly with a spatula to form a patty.
Step 9
Cook the latkes for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy. Adjust the heat as necessary to prevent burning.
Step 10
Once cooked, transfer the latkes to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
Step 11
Serve the latkes warm and enjoy immediately.
