Dear Bubbe, First I would like to say how much I enjoy your show.

I have watched every episode and have printed out many of the recipes. The first one (which I’m very excited about) that I am going to cook is potato latkes.

My question is, when you go to make your 2nd batch of latkes, do you add more oil to the pan? It looked as if much of the oil was gone after the first batch.

Thank you, and I am so looking forward to your new episode.

Take care,

Teresa, yes you have to continue adding oil as this is what helps make the latkes crispy. However if you place them on a paper towel when you take them from the frying pan this will help take some of the oil from the latkes.

Also make sure the added oil becomes hot before placing your next batch into the frying pan.
