Matzo Meal Latkes

These traditional matzo meal latkes offer a delicious twist on the classic potato pancake, resulting in a lighter, fluffier texture that is incredibly satisfying. By whisking the egg whites until stiff before folding them into the batter, you achieve a delicate interior that contrasts beautifully with the crisp, golden-brown exterior. The addition of grated onion provides a subtle savoury depth, though they are equally delightful if you prefer a simpler, more neutral flavour base.

As a versatile vegetarian dish, these latkes are a staple during Passover but are equally welcome as a comforting breakfast or side dish throughout the year. Serve them piping hot from the frying pan with a generous dollop of soured cream or a spoonful of sweet applesauce for the perfect balance of flavours. They are a wonderful way to introduce homemade Jewish comfort food to your kitchen.

Ingredients for Matzo Meal Latkes

  • 200g matzo meal

  • 2 teaspoons salt

  • 2 tablespoons sugar

  • 6 eggs

  • 350ml water

  • 180ml grated onion (optional)

  • 180ml corn oil for frying

  • Applesauce

  • Soured cream

  1. In a large bowl, combine matzo meal, salt, and sugar. Set aside.

  2. Separate egg whites and yolks. Beat egg yolks, and combine with water. Add the yolk mixture to the matzo meal mixture, and let it stand for 30 minutes.

  3. Beat egg whites with an electric mixer until they are stiff, and fold them into the matzo meal mixture. Add grated onion.

  4. Heat corn oil until it sizzles in a deep skillet. Lower heat, and, using a cooking spoon, spoon batter into the pan, creating thin pancakes 3 to 4 inches in diameter. Fry for several minutes, turning when the pancake is firm and the bottom side is golden brown. Fry for another few minutes until the other side is done. Drain on paper towel. Serve with applesauce and/or soured cream.
