1. Coarsely grate the potatoes into a bowl of cold water and leave to soak for 30 minutes.
2. Heat the butter and olive oil in a frying pan, add the shallots and sugar. Season. Cook over a medium heat for 10-15 minutes, turning the shallots until caramelised. Add the rosemary and cook for a minute. Keep warm.
3. Drain the potato, squeezing out excess moisture with a clean tea towel. Stir in the onion and caraway seeds, then fold in the eggs and season. Heat 1cm sunflower oil in a non-stick frying pan and add tbsps of the potato mix.
4. Flatten with the back of a spoon and fry for 3-4 minutes each side, until golden. Repeat with the rest of the mixture. Drain on kitchen paper. Keep warm in a low oven.
5. Divide the latkes between six warm plates. Top with the caramelised shallots. Pour the sherry vinegar into the shallot pan and bubble for a minute. Season, then spoon over the shallots. Top with gorgonzola and serve.
