SMOKED TUNA LATKES
INGREDIENTS
-
1 Mitch’s Catch Smoked Tuna Loin
-
4 russet potatoes
-
1/2 onion
-
2 eggs
-
1 tbsp baking powder
-
2 tbsp matzo meal/ breadcrumbs
-
1 tsp kosher salt
-
1 cup canola oil
Toppings & Garnishes (Optional)
-
Sour cream/ cream cheese
-
Sliced red onion
-
Capers (we love Cote D’Azur Capers, available at the Market)
-
Caviar (we love Sebastian & Meats)
HOW TO
-
Scrub potatoes well & cut each potato in half
-
Grate cut potatoes & onion using the shredding disc of a food processor or a box grater if you’re doing it by hand
-
Transfer potato and onion to a colander & strain, pressing out any excess water
-
Put into a bowl, add eggs, baking powder, matzo meal (breadcrumbs) & salt and mix well
-
Heat 1/2 cup of pil in a large frying pan & drop in a bit of mixture to test the heat (if it sizzles, then the oil is hot enough to start frying!)
-
Form latkes one at a time and flatten with a metal flipper
-
Let latkes fry until the outer edges have turned brown, and then it’s time to flip them (fry until golden brown on both sides)
-
Transfer to paper towel lined cooling racks and drain for 2 minutes
-
Serve with sliced Mitch’s Catch Smoked Tuna Loin, sour cream and top off with caviar, red onion and capers
-
Enjoy!
