DIRECTIONS
- Cook instant potatoes in a pot following package instructions. Instead of water, use chicken broth, 4 tablespoons of butter and 1/3 cup of milk.
- After potatoes have been whipped, but are still hot, mix in the cheese.
- Allow to cool and blend in the egg.
- If potato mixture is too thick, add a little more butter.
- In a large skillet pour in 1/2 inch of cooking oil (not olive oil). Heat oil until very hot and then with a tablespoon, drop in large globs of the potato mixture.
- When the edges begin to turn a golden brown, then with a spatula, turn the latkes over and continue cooking until the other side is golden brown.
