Ingredients

  • 2 cups of freshly grated potatoes
  • 3 eggs, whisked until smooth
  • 2 tablespoons of versatile all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon of finely grated onion
  • 1 ½ teaspoons of salt to enhance the flavor
  • ½ cup of oil for frying until golden
  • 1 tablespoon of oil for added richness
  • 2 ripe pears, sliced into 1/2-inch pieces
  • ¼ cup of brown sugar, divided for sweetness
  • 8 ounces of creamy goat cheese, sliced thinly
  • ¼ cup of sherry vinegar for a touch of acidity

Step 1

Begin by placing shredded potatoes in a cheesecloth, squeezing out any excess moisture to ensure your latkes turn out perfectly crispy. In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded potatoes with eggs, flour, diced onion, and a pinch of salt for flavor.

Step 2

Next, heat up half a cup of oil in a large skillet until it shimmers, ready to fry your latkes to golden perfection. Spoon the potato mixture into the hot oil, flattening each spoonful to create delicious pancakes. Cook the latkes until they are beautifully browned and crispy on each side, typically taking around 3 to 5 minutes. Once done, transfer them to paper towels to drain off any excess oil.

Step 3

In a separate skillet, add a tablespoon of oil over medium-high heat and cook sliced pears until they caramelize. Sprinkle some brown sugar over the pears, allowing it to melt and create a sweet glaze, taking around 3 to 5 minutes per side.

Step 4

To serve, arrange the latkes on a platter and top each one with a slice of creamy goat cheese and a caramelized pear. Finish off by sprinkling a touch more brown sugar over the pears and drizzling some sherry vinegar for a delightful tangy kick. Enjoy this unique and flavorful twist on traditional latkes!

Extra Tips & Suggestions

  1. 1. Keep your potatoes in a cool, dark place to prevent sprouting and keep them fresh for making those delicious latkes.
  2. 2. Store your pears at room temperature until ripe, then transfer them to the fridge to slow down the ripening process and extend their shelf life.
