Latkchos – Latke Nachos
December 15, 2020
Step one is to grate all the potatoes and soak them in water.
Dry them well and add egg and breadcrumbs.
Then fry them up.
Pile it high with cheese and apples.
Then top with sour cream and scallions.
This was an amazing plate of nachos. Obviously similar to totchos, but super crispy and the apples on top were unexpected and really nice.

- 1/2 a large Onion grated
- 1 Egg

Instructions
- Put the grated potatoes into a large bowl of cold water and allow to soak for an hour. Drain

- Add the egg and breadcrumbs and stir to combine. Add in salt and pepper.
- Form large coin shaped patties with the potato mixture. Pour about a half inch of oil in a frying pan. Cook the latkes in the oil about 2 minutes per side to brown. Allow to cool and dry on a rack or paper towel.
