Alexa Whats for Dinner

Using a box grater, grate the potatoes and onions on the large holes. Place them in a cheese cloth or dish rag. Into a large bowl, wring out the liquid from the potatoes and onions. Allow the liquid to sit for about 10 minutes, then discard while leaving the starchy bottom layer. Into the bowl with the starch, add the shredded potatoes and onions, eggs, sharp cheddar, matzo meal, and kosher salt. Mix to evenly combine. Heat about 1 inch oil in a large skillet over medium high. Take the latke mixture, about 2 tbsp at a time, form them into patties with your hands, and carefully place them in the oil. Be careful not to overcrowd, and fry until deep golden brown on both sides. Once done, move to a paper towel lined plate. Serve immediately with sour cream, chives and applesauce in a separate bowl. Enjoy!
