How To Make latkes with chive sour cream
-
Step 1For the Sour Cream: Mix all the ingredients together and set aside.

Step 2For the Latkes. Grate the potatoes, and onions on a box grater. Place on clean kitchen towel and squeeze all the water out. Place the potatoes and onions in a bowl. Grate the cheese and add to the potatoes.

Step 3Add the egg, thyme and season with salt and pepper. Preheat oven at 200 degrees. Place a baking sheet in the oven.

Step 4Place a skillet on the stove and add some oil. Place the potato mixture in a measuring cup. You the size you want the latkes to be. I use 1 cup but generally you make them small. Dump the latkes in the oil and press down until flattened. Fry until browned and crispy on both sides. Place them in the oven to keep warm as you do other batches.
