Potato Lentil Latkes

Directions

1. In a food processor fitted with the grating disc, grate potatoes, onions, and lentils.
2. Transfer mix to a bowl and squeeze out the liquid.
3. To a clean bowl, add potato mixture, eggs, flour, salt, baking powder, cayenne, and pepper and mix until flour is absorbed.
4. In a heavy-bottomed skillet, heat ¼ inch of oil. Once oil has reached 350⁰F (180⁰C), use a teaspoon to shape and drop the batter into the hot pan. Use a spatula to flatten the latke into disks.
5. When the edges begin to color, flip and cook for 5 additional minutes. Transfer cooked latke to a wire rack with paper towel to drain.
6. Enjoy warm with optional toppings.
