Chile Head Latkes

2 medium potatoes
1 small onion
1 finely minced clove of garlic
1 teaspoon dried, crushed oregano
1/2-1 teaspoon cumin
pinch cayenne
1 or more minced chiles. (Jalapeno? Super? Habanero?
to suit your piquency level)
3 eggs
pinch salt
matzoh meal-optional

Grate the potatoes and onion. Add the garlic clove, oregano, 
cumin, cayenne, and chile pepper. Beat in the eggs. Add salt. 
If the mix seems too liquid, add the matzoh meal. 

Fry latkes in oil, serve with warm salsa and sourcream.

Thanks to Erika Zeitz for the basic recipe, which has been
