Okonomiyaki is a Japanese savory pancake. Latkes are a potato pancake typically cooked on Hanukkah. This recipe combines the two.

I saw that a famous restaurant in NY made these. I haven’t been there but I liked the idea!

Steps

1

Wash and peel potatoes. Grate potatoes and onion. I used a benriner but you can also use a grater or cusinart with a grating disc.
2

Place potato and onion in a thin towel and wring out all the water into a bowl.
3

Allow the water to settle and pour off the water on top, leaving a few tablespoons of starch.
4

Toss ingredients of “A” in the starch using your hands. Set aside for 10 minutes.
5

Heat oil in a skillet over medium high heat. The oil is ready when a drop of batter sizzles immediately.
6

Add batter to oil using a fork. Make sure the latkes do not touch each other. Flatten them a little if they are lumpy in the middle.
7

Fry until crispy, about 4 minutes for each side. Place on a paper towel to drain when done.
8

Top with “B” ingredients. Eat while hot!
