I drain some of the water from the grated potatoes and onion so they will not spit hot oil at you when putting them the pan. And I eat them apple sauce and sour cream! I like the natural unsweetened apple sauce. They're yummy! I hate it when people say they put ketchup on their latkes! Oy Vey!

It's funny you mentioned that. My daughter watched the video with me and said ketchup would be perfect on them. Son was horseradish sauce on them and I would eat them plain. Hubby says mustard. Man what a varied family I have. :lol:
 
I also like the un-sweetened applesauce on mine <latkes>

Kristina, it's neat that you and your daughter watched together and how everyone had different ideas for their topping:)

I only eat unsweetened applesauce . I think applause taste way too sweet with sugar in it. We have sugar in everything today! I can't believe there is cereals that have sugar coated raisins in it! Gross! How can people eat that much sugar?

Daughter has to have ketchup on anything potato. I plan to make some of these this weekend.
 
My daughter will put ketchup on mashed potatoes and it would drive my husband crazy. I'd just tell him people put ketchup (including him) on french fries...which are potatoes. I like to dip my french fries in apple sauce. I don't care for ketchup.

That would drive me crazy too! I do not put gravy on my mashed potatoes.
French fried are not the same as mashed potatoes. You can buy the latkes
all made too they're frozen , they're are OK , and there is a mix you can buy .
It really helps to drain some water as the oil it really hot and you don't want to get hot oil spitting at you when you put the batter in the pan.
