These are my favorite potato latkes. I love the sweetness of the Yukon Gold potato with the mildly pungent leeks. Both the potatoes and the sauteed leeks are naturally moist. We found draining them in a strainer before combining all the ingredients prevented the mixture from becoming too soupy. Also, dropping scoopfuls onto cookie sheets for oven baking made the process quick and easy.
