  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   2      pounds        potatoes
   2      large         eggs
                        Salt
                        Oil for frying


Peel and finely grate the potatoes. Put them straight into cold 
water, then
drain and squeeze them as dry as you can by pressing them with your 
hands
in a colander. This is to remove the starchy liquid, which could make 
the
latkes soggy.

Beat the eggs lightly with salt, add to the potatoes, and stir well. 
Film
the bottom of a frying pan with oil and heat. Take serving-spoonfuls, 
or as
much as 1/4 cup, of the mixture, and drop into the hot oil. Flatten a
little, and lower the heat so that the fritters cook through evenly. 
When
one side is brown, turn over and brown the other. Lift out and serve 
very
hot.

Yield: 6 serving
