Рецепт Sweet Potato and Leek Latkes
Sweet Potato and Leek Latkes
After we're done making regular classic latkes for a couple of Chanukah nights, it's time to think outside the [white potato] box and get some anti-oxidents and vitamins into our bloodstreams!
I made latkes tonight with sweet potatoes and leeks and they turned out great. Let's face it -- fried anything would probably be pretty good. But these taste just like latkes should. Crisp and delicious and mightily Chanukah-esque. I hope you enjoy these as much as my [vegetable hater] husband and I did.
- 6 sweet potatoes, peeled and chopped fine in food processor
- 6 leeks, white and very light green parts only, washed and chopped fine in food processor
- 3 eggs
- 2 tsp salt (or to taste, 2 tsp makes a very savory latke)
- 1 tsp pepper
- 1/4 cup flour
- vegetable oil for frying (I use Mazola Corn Plus!)
Let sweet potatoes drain a bit before combining with other ingredients. Heat oil in a wide bottomed pan until very hot, and fry latkes until brown and crisp. Drain on paper towels and transfer to a warm oven and serve hot!
