Grate potatoes and onion using a box grater or food processor.

Place grated potatoes and onion in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out excess moisture.

Transfer the mixture to a bowl and add eggs, flour, salt, and pepper; mix until combined.

Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat until shimmering.

Scoop spoonfuls of the potato mixture into the hot oil, flattening them slightly.

Fry latkes for 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy.

Remove latkes from the skillet and drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.

Serve hot with sour cream and applesauce.
