INGREDIENTS

  • Vegetables

    • 🥔 2 cups peeled, shredded potatoes
    • 🧅 ¼ onion, shredded
    • ⅓ cup chopped green onion

  • Protein

    • 🥚 2 eggs, beaten

  • Dry Ingredients

    • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour, or as needed
    • 1 ½ teaspoons Cajun seasoning, or to taste

  • Cooking Oil

    • 1 cup canola oil, or as needed

STEPS

1

Place the potatoes in a cloth and wring them to remove as much moisture as possible. Mix the potatoes, onion, green onion, eggs, flour, and Cajun seasoning together in a bowl until thoroughly combined.

2

Heat the oil in a large, heavy skillet over medium heat until it shimmers (oil should be about 1/3 inch deep).

3

Drop about 2 tablespoons of the potato mixture per patty into the hot oil, and flatten the potatoes to make the patties 1/4 to 1/2-inch thick.

4

Brown the patties in the hot oil until golden and crisp on the bottom, about 5 minutes, then flip and cook on the other side.

5

Drain the latkes on paper towels, and serve hot.
