Forgot to add that the bamboo colander set in the Food 52 shop was super handy for squeezing out the shredded potatoes, pouring out the liquid, and mixing. Highly recommended!

Excellent recipe! I'd never made latkes before, but the promise of no peeling potatoes and no oily spattering intrigued me. My son and I got out the food processor and followed the well written instructions, only adapting amounts slightly for more potatoes (1 3/4 lbs potatoes, 2 eggs, 1/2 cup panko, 2 tsp salt, extra herbs--didn't have matzo meal) and a 12" skillet. It was a delicious addition to our little Covid-era Christmas dinner. This amount served 4 people with no leftovers. It's only the day after Christmas and I'm making another one now. That's how much we liked it!

How many people would this serve? I usually serve 3-4 roughly 3 inch latkes per person. Am I right in thinking this basically would serve two people? Its too bad I dont have a double oven...

Ella- this looks intriguing...like the Dutch Baby of latkes! Also, I note that you skirt the perennial argument/split in families by showing both applesauce and sour cream as garnishes. Last, I'm interested in playing with some of the other root veg here... did you try or think of parsnip, sweet potato etc?

Thank you Nancy! That sounds so delicious. I have thought about variations, but haven't tested through them quite yet—would love to hear how it goes if you swap in any other root vegetables.

Ella - made this with half sweet potato and half regular (wanted the starch from the regular) and it tasted delicious. I will try parsnips in the mix another time. Nice technique...much less work and splatter!
