Ariel’s Tips:
For the best results, use a stainless steel or a nonstick pan. A cast iron skillet cannot cook these latkes properly.
Make sure that the oil is properly heated before frying your latkes. A good way to check is by wetting your hand, and splashing the oil from a distance. If the oil makes a bubbling noise and splashes, it is hot enough for frying. If nothing happens or it sizzles slightly, it is not yet hot enough.
