Garlic Potato Latkes, my 1st attempt

Ive got to say,  prior to last night  I had only ever tried Latkes once,several years ago, and those were grey and tasteless.. and not very inspiring.  So imagine my surprise when I find myself making, and liking, them on a whim.. well actually after a conversation on FB about them.   True  to form, I couldn't even stick the recipe I had found on a fellow foodies site even though I usually try really hard  to follow it the first time :) So here is my first take on Latkes. 

To make 2 large Latkes you will need:
  • 1 large russet potato
  • 1 large egg ( Free range if you can )
  • 1 Clove of Garlic, minced
  • Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 1/4 cup whole wheat flour
  • Sea Salt & Black Pepper  
  • Lea & Perrins 
  • Bourbon Street Bad Hot Sauce 
  • Oven Safe Frying Pan


First up grate your potato into a mixing bowl, I prefer the plastic grater for potato.  
Once grated add in the flour, garlic and salt and pepper.
