Instructions / Directions
Serves: 4-6 Prep: 30 minutes- Prepare the potatoes and onions: Grate potatoes and onion into a large bowl. Sprinkle with 2 tsp of salt, mix well, and let sit for 15 minutes to draw out moisture.
- Make the herby crème fraîche: In a separate bowl, combine the herby creme fraiche ingredients and season. Cover and chill.
- Remove moisture from potatoes: Place the potato and onion mixture in a clean tea towel or muslin. Squeeze tightly over the sink to remove as much liquid as possible. Return the mix to the bowl and stir in breadcrumbs, egg, chopped chives, cumin, and plenty of black pepper.
- Cook the latke: Heat 2 tbsp of oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. Add the potato mixture, pressing it into an even layer. Cook for 6 minutes. Carefully invert the latke onto a plate. Heat the remaining 2 tbsp oil in the pan, slide the latke back in, and cook for another 6 minutes until golden on the other side.
- Assemble and serve: Transfer the latke to a serving board and slice into portions. Top with smoked salmon, dollops of herby crème fraîche, sliced spring onions, and fresh dill. Serve with lemon wedges on the side. Enjoy!
