Grate potatoes and thinly slice onions. Place in a large colander.

Squeeze mixture in the colander until as much moisture as possible has been removed.

Toss with garlic, egg, flour, salt and pepper.

Heat oil in a large skillet until hot. Add 1/4 cup handfuls of potatoes mixture to skillet and flatten to a pancake shape.

Fry each latke until well browned, then flip and brown the second side.

Serve with sugar, sour cream and apple sauce!
