Instructions
- Beat the eggs and additional yolk.
- To the beaten eggs, add remaining ingredients, except chicken fat.
- Shred the potatoes, just before adding them; it will look very peculiar.
- Season well.
- Heat the fat in a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat (or use an electric frying pan set at 400 degrees).
- Using a large spoon, drop the potato mixture into the hot fat, creating mounds approximately 3 inches in diameter; flatten with the "turner" Occasionally, press the latke into the fat so that it will brown evenly.
- Turn carefully when the underside is brown and crusty; brown the second side.
- Remove from the pan and drain on paper towels.
- Keep warm in a 350 deg. oven, in a single layer, for no more than 20 minutes.
- Serve piping hot with applesauce.
