@AsianBrotherhood1781 Here in the USA Casava is expensive except in New York City Since they are both roots just substitute the casava and let me know how it turns out

Potato Pancakes are awesome kind of food.

[coymn]

this looks good! potato and onion!

[irminlean]

great guys. My family eats them sometimes with:

mushroom sauce

sour cream and spring onions on the top

sugar

apple sauce

also..

I've heard that Hungarians eat them with meat gulash.

All sounds yummy to my tummy!:D

[Doshula]

Great recipe! great video!

[Licata14]

Just used this recipe, and they were great!! Instead of using the meal, I used seasoned breadcrumbs, and some fresh garlic too.

[KissHope]

Just made and ate my first latke using your recipe but used all purpose flour instead of the meal, gentile here. lol Wowzer so so soooo good, they were suppose to be a part of the meal but instead became the meal. I can't wait to try with some applesauce. Do you have a recipe for noodle pudding? Thanks for a great video.

[doctortragus]

So great! Almost identical to my fam's recipe, we just don't usually fancy it up with the yukon golds and vidalia onions - Russets and plain ol' yellow onions here, and they are still, and I quote, "crunchy clouds from heaven."

I did try to do sweet potatoes with shallots one year, which were alright, but you have to keep the oil down lower, or the sugar in the sweet potatoes start to smoke.

[flouflis1a]

Grandpa survived the camps by eating these!

[directedbyMOI]

I dont comment on much of youtube, but I must say I like the show ALOT...I challenge you guys to get on a network...Im sure it will do very well....and by the way, what  are the songs are you guys playing in the background

[TEDESCOitalian]

[Bo0bsta]

If anyone knows the first song that plays in the video, the one that start at 1:25 - 2:20 please let me know !!!

These Latkes are similar to what they in Switzerland call Rösti, however a Rösti is as big as the entire frying pan and is served together with meat and some sort of gravy.

In SWEDEN they eat something called "Raggmunk". To make this, you add shredded potatoes to home made pancake batch and then mix and fry similiar to these latkes. Together with Raggmunkar (plural of Raggmunk) you eat stekfläsk (fried pork) similiar to panchetta and have lingonberryjam as condiment. Try it!

[vivaDanielle]

My grandma (Estonian) and mama (Mexican) taught me how to make latkes. I've become the designated latke maker now. I'd have to say I make a damn good latke considering my background, but I'll have to try your grandpa's recipe next time :)

[KissHope]

@vivaDanielle

They are delicious I just made and ended up eating just the latkes instead of being a part of the meal. Btw I used the yukon golds what I buy most of time and really think it makes them better even though haven't tried with russet. The middle was kind of creamy because of the yukon having less starch. I just know they make the best mashed.

[AClumsySheep]

love the family.

[MegaRubiksCube]

Papa Lando has the most glorious glasses I've ever seen.

[XoXoVANNAoXoX]

These sound really good!

[MrDurcon]

Wow, what a nice family. My mom has the same blender. 

[QUEENLEENO1]

@93princess40

Some people use flour, but matzo meal is really better.. The difference in taste is worth using it.

[QUEENLEENO1]

Sounds yummy to me.. Wonder what the baking powder does to the latkas??

[taxpayr]

Well, now I'm having a serious craving for potato pancakes. I have always had them with applesauce - but want to try them with sugar and sour cream. yummy.

[cheesestr4wz]

[marisotoserna]

[o0oShaZo0o]

[udontknowme2857]

[H3ct0rN1nez]

Buñuelos!

- typically consist of a simple, wheat-based yeast dough, often flavored with anise, that is thinly rolled, cut or shaped into individual pieces, then fried and finished off with a sweet topping. Buñuelos may be filled with a variety of things, ranging from cheese to yams. They can be round in ball shapes or disc shaped. (wiki)

My Grandma makes them Disk Shape, they are kind of like a Fried Flour Tortilla. Sprinkle sugar on it and hmm hmmmm!

[lradist]

Wish I had watched this before I made mine this year...looks great!

[sandyjawn]

holy crap. i have been experimenting with latkes so much and ultimately failed.

but you guys are the best for sharing this :]

[UsingATelescope]

I love the collection of Threadless t-shirts that you guys have!

[MDF1099]

adorable episode!

[AClumsySheep]

is there any good /useable substitute for matzo meal?

[missavaricebliss]

We used yukon gold potatoes and the latkes turned out great! We also added some cinnamon to the applesauce. A whole bag of potatoes only fed 5 people! If I did it again, I would use my electric skillet to fry lots of them at once because we were frying latkes for over an hour!

[WalnutSprout]

I love your grandpa he looks so adorable sitting there with grandma. I think he was star of this episode :)

[mikenike504]

He is adorable. And his longevity is amazing. *raises glass of alcoholic beverage* To all our healths!

I want some latkes now.

[shorgeeborgee]

our traditional meal is matzo ball soup made from scratch it is a recipe that has been in the family for 5 generations can't go into detail it is a family secret, but the soup stock is homemade and the matzo balls are just the perfect texture between a soft and a hard we also make blintzes from scratch and noodle kugel all family recipe we also have a recipe for cow tongue but we rarely have it because dad hates cow tongue anyway have a happy 7th night of hanukkah oh and sorry I prefer donuts

[punkypoof]

i love you guys, but the way you peel veg scares the shit out of me, hold the veg or fruit properly and pull the peeler towards you, saves you cutting your fingers or knuckles, just a thought....x

[debbiestacked]

not going to lie, I have a pretty big crush on max. love the witty t-shirts.

in the Hanukkah spirit, you guys should make sufganiyot :D

[Adretea]

we are czech so on christmas eve we have traditional fish soup, fried carp (it has to be carp :)),with potato salad and chocolate cake my granny makes (the best on earth, ofcourse). Also when advent starts every czech family makes loads of little sweets and christmas cookies by traditional recipes....

[wcfoodies]

I like the sound of chocolate cake! Got a recipe?

[zeeartfuldodger]

i LOVE dad with the Nigella Lawson moment at the end... so cute! lol

[palebluedot]

I learned how to make mole negro from a friend's mother and it's on our christmas table every year.

My family is south korean.

you figure it out.

[homemadeshenanigans]

we are very traditional Mexican people when it comes to food during the holidays. so we make posole, atole, tamales and bunuelos.

[citypenguin]

For xmas, everyone in myfamily has to cook one thing to bring to the table. Latkes seem like a good choice!

[thiskidglows]

Oh I'm so excited! My dad bought these wierd apple pear things and i was going to make turn overs but i'm going to make these for desert tomorro!

[listerineman]

rating of horrible because of adds

[soraluna606]

My mom is Romanian and we always have cabbage rolls with smoked pork hocks and sour cream for Christmas. When I'm visiting family in Romania, my Godmother will bake a "cozonac", which is a traditional nut/candied-fruit filled christmas bread/cake. It takes about a day to make and bake so it's always a very special occasion when someone in my family decides to make it.

Thank you for the wonderful video!!!

[thiskidglows]

mmmmm that sounds amazing!

[soraluna606]

hahahahah Thanks! I asure you that it is! It's the kind of dish (the cabbage roll one) that for me defines comfort food.

[Bccaundefined]

All I can say is YUM!

[missababy26]

A very large country ham, but bc my hubby hates country ham I now make a maple cured ham. Also you have to have fudge. My grandmother mails me a box every year for christmas.

[mztadobolina]

the hungry nation intro thingy reminds me of Zelda.. The Goron city music... :)

[finalredlaser]

Latkes-Best food EVER!!!!!!!!!

[MyStiCxByul]

your grandparents and parents are the best :D and latkes seem really good! I wanna try making them now :]

[krukka]

My oh my I really love your shows! Regards from Iceland and thanks a million!

[sooth15]

Awesome. I've heard of Latkes many times and I'm really thinking of trying to make some. Seems like a very simple recipe. I'll let you guys know if I make some (and post about it). Thanks for sharing your family tradition with us.

[celtwolf8b]

I'm a big fan of latkes (try 'em with a little dark chocolate. DELISH!).

this isn;t a meal, per se, but i've made it a tradition to give my family and friends homemade cocoa mix. I add a new flavor every year, after extensive experimentation. so far, we have plain cocoa, cinnamon cocoa, peppermint cocoa, mocha cocoa (dad's favorite), gingerbread cocoa (the crowd pleaser, and my favorite), and spicy traditional mexican cocoa (my sister's favorite). i've learned how to make marshmallows, too!

[questionsmyfuture23]

I love latkes!!! Most of my family eats them with applesauce, but I prefer to eat them with ketchup!! I def think y'all should put more traditional Jewish dishes on your show...love you guys!!!

[mickysantos]

Here in Portugal, traditionally, we either eat sun dryed and salted cod fish (which is of course de-salted before we eat it), that we boil along w/ potatoes and cabbage. On the country side, it's more traditional to eat boiled octopus w/ potatoes. :)

[AClumsySheep]

what a lovely family!

[Ahbeeb]

Neato. but why are the 'breaks' always the same thing over and over?

[lenhister]

Somebody tell me what video camera are they using. Please.
