For extra flavor, experiment with different varieties of kettle chips, such as salt and vinegar or jalapeno. Ensure the oil is hot enough before adding the latke batter for optimal crispiness. Test with a small amount of batter first. Serve immediately for the best texture. Latkes can be reheated, but they are best fresh.
