Ingredients

• 2 pounds of russet potatoes, peeled
• 1 large onion, finely chopped or grated
• 2 large eggs, beaten
• 4 tablespoons all-purpose flour (or matzo meal for Passover)
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• Oil for grilling (high smoke point oil like canola or avocado)
• Optional: apple sauce or sour cream for serving

Tools

• Arteflame grill
• Grater
• Mixing bowl
• Kitchen towel or cheesecloth
• Spatula
• Plate with paper towels (for draining)

Instructions

1. Prepare Potatoes and Onion: Grate the potatoes using a coarse grater, then move to a kitchen towel or cheesecloth and squeeze out as much liquid as possible. Combine the drained potatoes in a large bowl with the chopped onion, eggs, flour, salt, and pepper. Mix well to form a cohesive batter.

2. Preheat the Arteflame Grill: Preheat your Arteflame grill to a medium-high heat. Make sure the grilling surface is clean and apply a generous amount of oil to create a non-stick environment.

3. Form and Cook the Latkes: Take a handful of the latke mixture and form it into a flat, round pancake about 1/2 inch thick. Place the latkes on the grill and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side or until they are golden brown and crispy. Work in batches to avoid overcrowding.

4. Drain and Serve: Once cooked, transfer the latkes to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil. Serve hot with a side of apple sauce or sour cream, as desired.

Enjoy your festive meal with these deliciously crispy grilled latkes made on the Arteflame grill.
