4 large baking potatoes
sprinkle of onion powder
1/4 tsp baking powder
whites of 2 jumbo eggs
pepper to taste
2-4 tbsps matzoh meal, just enough to keep mixture together
salt (optional)
Grate potatoes by hand to retain bubbe's texture
Mix all ingredients in a bowl.
Cook on cast iron preheated skillet in a 500 degree oven. Skillet
is placed on bottom shelf and not removed from oven. Spray lightly
with Pam. Pan must be exceedingly hot, latkes must sizzle when dropped
in pan. Latkes must also be very thin in order to cook properly.
Cook 3 minutes on each side.
I serve them directly from the oven, reheating them causes them to lose
their crispness.
