Amounts are approximate and based on a classic recipe that makes about 16 latkes (3 inches wide). Kids count as half a portion.
Tips for crispy latkes
- Squeeze the grated potato very dry in a clean towel.
- Fry a few at a time so the oil stays hot.
- Keep finished latkes warm on a rack in a 200°F (95°C) oven.
- Serve with applesauce and sour cream.
How it works: enter the number of adults and kids (kids count as half a portion) and choose a taste, a side dish or a main dish. The calculator plans 2, 4 or 6 latkes per person and scales a classic recipe of about 2 pounds of potatoes for 16 latkes. You also get the amount of applesauce and sour cream and how long frying will take.
