THEYRE NOT LATKES YOU FUCKING RETARD REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
I've made threads about fried potato cakes like 4 times now and every time someone brings up the fucking kike-cakes.

Just because they're not kosher, doesn't mean they're not latkes.

I'm Jewish (not practicing anymore obviously).
Latkes are made using shredded potatoes, and using flour and vegetable oil is basically a sin, nevermind the bacon.

You're genetically a Jew. Practically all Jews are Atheists, that doesn't mean they aren't Jewish.

Obviously, but Jews aren't allergic to bacon

I want to say something antisemitic, but you seem like an alright guy and mashed potato pancakes are delicious, so I won't.

Don't worry, I'll call him a kike for you.

Latkes are made with shredded raw potatoes. Much more akin to hash browns than OP’s cakes.

Literally all of that except also 0.5 inches thick with only about a tablespoon of flour instead, then cover in flour, egg wash, breadcrumbs and deep fry

My family always made them with a mix of shredded and mashed.

What happens if you don't use egg, and would I be able to bake instead of fry?

>> No.13177802

I'm sorry about these people OP.

>> No.13177911

>>13177796
The egg is there to help bind. You could do without, it's just that flipping them will be harder and they might kind of crumble. I don't see why you couldn't bake. I would just do it at a pretty high temperature

Do you add butter or milk to the mashed potates?
