Instructions
Peel and grate the onion and potato. Add to a large bowl along with an egg, salt and pepper.
Add the flour and baking powder. If it seems too loose, add a bit more flour.
Heat oil over medium high heat and using a large scoop, add mounds of the batter to the oil, flattening them slightly. Do not disturb until golden on the first side.
Carefully flip and brown the second side. For a really crisp latke, repeat the process, flipping and frying both sides again for just a minute or two. They should be firm to the touch.
Remove to a paper towel to drain any excess oil. Season immediately with a sprinkling of salt.
