Try these crispy Fishwife Latkes, topped with sour cream, flakes of Fishwife tinned fish, salmon roe, and fresh chives. A delicious and savory twist on the classic latke, perfect for any occasion!
Fishwife Smoky Trio
- • 5-6 medium Russet potatoes (about 2 pounds), scrubbed and cut lengthwise into quarters
- • ½ large onion (8 ounces), peeled and cut into quarters
- • 2 large eggs
- • ½ cup matzo meal
- • 2 teaspoons kosher salt, plus more for sprinkling
- • ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- • Neutral oil, for frying
- • Fishwife Smoky Trio, flaked, for garnish
- • Sour cream, for garnish
- • Fresh chives, for garnish
- • Fresh salmon roe, for garnish
- Preheat oven to 200F.
- Grate the potatoes and onion on the large holes of a box grater or with the shredding disc in the bowl of a food processor. Transfer the mixture to a clean dish towel and squeeze and wring out as much of the liquid as possible. Discard liquid.
- Transfer the potato mixture to a large bowl. Add the eggs, matzo meal, salt, and pepper, and mix until the matzo meal is absorbed.
- In a large cast iron skillet over medium-high heat, pour in about ¼ inch of the oil. Once the oil is hot, drop about 2 tablespoons batter into the hot pan, cooking in batches. Use a spatula to flatten and shape the drops into discs. When the edges of the latkes are brown and crispy, about 5 minutes, flip. Cook until the second side is deeply browned, about another 5 minutes. Transfer the latkes to a cooling rack set over a sheet pan to drain and sprinkle with salt while still warm. Keep warm in preheated oven. Repeat with the remaining batter.
- Top with sour cream, flakes of tinned fish, salmon roe, chives, flaky salt, and black pepper. Serve immediately.
