    Potato latkes. Hanukkah tradition to eat oily food; fried is the way to go. Latkes are a staple. Traditionally fried in schmaltz (rendered chicken fat), but then you can't put sour cream on 'em, so peanut oil is fairly standard. High smoke point and neutral flavor. Using bacon fat is really frowned upon, but....

    Yum 🤤 sounds similar to mock fish potato cakes here.

    Any idea why the call it Mock Fish?

    I made the smallest possible batch. One potato and a half onion. I remember my little secrets to making them better. I might make another batch tomorrow with the other half onion.

    That's cultured Greek yogurt. Traditional toppings are sour cream and/or applesauce. I have yogurt.

    And really only about 600 calories for the whole batch (about 75 calories each), so it doesn't really even belong here unless I go make the other potato too.

    🤤 I like mine dipped in sweet chilli sauce.
    I wondered about why they were called mock fish too. So, this is what it says about the British version..
    Fish was hard to get as the war loomed on. Fishermen had joined the military and were off fighting the war; those that remained had to throw their nets close to shore, as bombing by the enemy was always a threat. The fish that were caught were sold and bought quickly by those that lived close to shore; those that lived inland rarely got fresh fish. So what to do in wartime? Make Mock Fish!( the British version has rice not potato)

    Im presuming that somehow our Australian ones are a tweaked version of this.
    All I found for our version in the way of explanation was this.
    From the similarity of the grated potato to fish flakes.

    So, 🤷‍♀️ I don't really know. 😁

    This was from a British wartime cookbook
    Mock Fish

    1/2 pint of whole milk

    2 oz ground rice

    1 tsp chopped onion or leek

    Margarine (or butter if your ration allows)

    Anchovy paste or essence
