My husband, Avi, and I carry prepare these delicious latkes with our children, Sara, 10, and Yaakov, 5. This year, Sara is old enough to help make the latkes (the oil can get very hot, so be careful). I serve my latkes with sour cream, cottage cheese and applesauce, plus a salad on the side.

I forgot to mention... I used crushed Roasted Vegetable Ritz crackers instead of bread crumbs. Gives it a great flavor!
