Yes, really. Alex and I are making sausages with sauerkraut for dinner, and had half of a bag left over. I was playing around on epicurious to get some ideas, and found this recipe. Genius! So I threw it together (seriously, about 2 minutes), fried them up in some oil, and ate them up. I am glad I only made four because I could have eaten a whole lot more than the two I ate.

1 c sauerkraut, drained well then squeezed between paper towels
1 egg
salt and pepper
2 T flour mix
oil for frying
Heat 1/4″ oil in a frying pan. Combine sauerkraut, egg, salt and pepper, and flour mix in a bowl with your hands. Form patties, squeezing out any excess liquid. Fry latkes, browning well on one side, then flipping and browning on the other. Serve with apple sauce.
