Best 10 Sweet Potato And Apple Latkes With Ginger And Sweet Spices Recipes

SWEET POTATO AND APPLE LATKES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 200°F (93°C).
• Using the coarse side of a box grater or a food processor fitted with a medium grating disk, grate the potatoes, apples, and shallots. Toss together in a large bowl.
• Add the eggs, matzo meal, salt, and pepper and toss to mix well.
• Pour 3/4 inch oil into a skillet over medium-high heat. When the temperature reaches 370°F (188°C), scoop 1/4 cup potato mixture from the bowl and then gently drop the mixture onto a wide spatula. (The point here is to keep your hands as clean as possible.) Press the potato mixture into a patty about 1/4 inch thick, then gently slide the pancake into the hot oil. Cook 3 or 4 pancakes at a time (do not crowd the pan) until the edges are crisp and well browned and the undersides are golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes.
• Gently turn the latkes and cook until the other side is golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes longer.
• Transfer the pancakes to paper towels to drain briefly, then arrange in a single layer on 2 baking sheets. Keep the latkes warm in the oven while you cook the remaining pancakes. (You can instead cool the latkes to room temperature, then stack them in single layers between sheets of parchment or wax paper, and freeze them in resealable plastic bags. Crisp in a 325°F (163°C) oven for 15 to 20 minutes before serving.)
• Serve the latkes hot with sour cream and applesauce on the side.

SWEET POTATO AND CARROT LATKES WITH SPICED APPLE-CRANBERRY RELISH

Steps:

• For the spiced apple-cranberry relish: Melt the butter over medium-high in a medium pot. Add the onion, stir to coat and sprinkle with 2 teaspoons kosher salt. Reduce the heat to medium, cover the pot and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are translucent and just beginning to brown around the edges of the pot, about 20 minutes.
• Add the vinegar, thyme and 1 tablespoon brown sugar and continue to cook, stirring frequently, until the onions are golden brown and very soft, about 20 minutes. Add the apples, cinnamon, ginger, allspice and remaining 2 tablespoons brown sugar and cook, stirring frequently, lower the heat if necessary, until the apples are tender, about 15 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the cranberries. Keep warm while preparing the latkes.
• For the latkes: Peel the sweet and Russet potatoes and shred them in a food process fitted with the shredding blade. Transfer the potatoes to a large mixing bowl as the food processor bowl fills up. Repeat with the carrots and onion. Toss the vegetables together with your hands, breaking up and evenly dispersing all the shredded vegetables throughout. Mix in the flour, baking powder and egg and sprinkle generously with salt.
• Line a baking sheet with paper towels. Fill a large skillet with 1/2 inch of oil. Heat over medium-high heat until the oil is very hot but not smoking. To test if the oil is hot enough, drop a teaspoon of the vegetable mixture in the oil; if it sizzles steadily, the oil is ready.
• Working in batches, scoop the vegetable mixture by 1/4 cupfuls add and them carefully to the skillet, flattening each latke slightly with a spatula. Fry until golden brown and cooked through, about 2 minutes per side. Drain on the prepared baking sheet.
• Serve hot or keep warm in 200-degree F oven. Serve with the spiced apple-cranberry relish and sour cream.

SWEET POTATO AND APPLE LATKES WITH GINGER AND SWEET SPICES

Steps:

• Begin heating a large heavy skillet over medium heat. Heat the oven to 350 degrees. Line a sheet pan with parchment and place a rack over another sheet pan.
• Place the grated sweet potatoes in a large bowl. Toss the grated apple with the lime juice and add to the sweet potatoes, along with the ginger, spices, baking powder, salt, oat bran and matzo meal or flour. Taste and adjust salt. Add the beaten eggs and stir together.
• Take a 1/4 cup measuring cup and fill with 2 tablespoons of the mixture. Reverse onto the parchment-lined baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining latke mix. You should have enough to make about 40 latkes.
• Add the oil to the pan and when it is hot (hold your hand a few inches above - you should feel the heat), slide a spatula under one portion of the latke mixture and press down with the spatula to flatten. Repeat with more mounds. In my 10-inch pan I can cook four at a time without crowding; my 12-inch pan will accommodate five or six. Cook on one side until golden brown, about three minutes. Slide the spatula underneath and flip the latkes over. Cook on the other side until golden brown, another two to three minutes. Transfer to the rack set over a baking sheet. Try one latke and if it is still a bit chewy in the middle transfer them to the baking sheet and place in the oven for 10 minutes, until golden brown and soft in the center.
• Serve hot topped with applesauce and low-fat sour cream, thick Greek yogurt or crème fraîche if desired.
