Ingredients

  • 1 large russet potato grated, all the water squeezed out
  • 2 medium leeks white parts only, sliced thinly
  • 2 medium parsnips peeled and grated
  • 3 tablespoons matzo meal
  • 5 egg whites whites make food crispy, yolks make food cakey
  • Kosher salt and freshly cracked pepper
  • ½ cup duck fat

Instructions

  •  Mix all of the ingredients together. (I always make a small “tester” latke to make sure my seasoning is correct).
  •  Heat a large sauté pan with the duck fat over medium heat. When the fat is hot and sizzles when a bit of potato is put in it, drop the latke mixture from teaspoons into the fat. Brown on each side and transfer to a paper-towel lined pan.
