Frequently Asked Questions:
Should some liquid come out of the latke mixture?
No, it shouldn’t, but don’t worry if it does! Just add some breadcrumbs to your mixture or reduce the amount of liquid you use.
What can I add instead of eggs?
If you do not have eggs on hand or are vegan, you can use potato flour, cornflour, soy powder, or chickpea flour instead. Mix the flour with some water to make a sticky paste. It has the same binding effect that eggs would have. Other suitable egg substitutes include apple puree, agar, banana, and chia seeds.

- 3 Carrots (medium)
- 4-5 Garlic cloves
- 3 tbsp Sesame seeds
- 3 tbsp Bread crumbs

Instructions
- Grate the potatoes, onion, and carrots with a coarse grater into a bowl.

- Add the rest of the ingredients to the potatoes, onion, and carrots mixture.
- Once again, mix all the ingredients until they are well combined.
- Divide the mixture into small patties.
- Heat oil in a large skillet over medium to medium-high heat. To confirm that the oil is adequately heated, put a piece of bread into the oil. It should turn golden brown before you count to 10.
