Time 45m

Yield 15

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 pound sweet potatoes, peeled
½ cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
2 teaspoons white sugar
1 teaspoon brown sugar
2 teaspoons curry powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
2 eggs, beaten
½ cup vegetable oil for frying
½ cup milk

Steps:

  • Shred the sweet potatoes, and place in a colander to drain for about 10 minutes. In a large bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder, white sugar, brown sugar, curry powder and cumin. Make a well in the center, and pour in eggs and milk. Stir until all of the dry ingredients have been absorbed. Stir in sweet potatoes.
  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Drop the potato mixture by spoonfuls into the oil, and flatten with the back of the spoon. Fry until golden on both sides, flipping only once. If they are browning too fast, reduce the heat to medium. Remove from the oil, and keep warm while the other pancakes are frying.

SWEET POTATO PANCAKES



Sweet Potato Pancakes image

Crisp potato pancakes called latkes are part of Hanukkah celebrations. We've kept the traditional frying method (and sour cream to go with them), but refreshed the recipe by trading white potatoes and onions for sweet potatoes and scallions.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Healthy Recipes     Vegetarian Recipes

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 pound sweet potatoes, peeled
3 scallions, finely chopped
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
Coarse salt and ground pepper
3/4 cup vegetable oil
Sour cream, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Coarsely grate sweet potatoes on the large holes of a box grater (or use a food processor fitted with a shredding blade). Transfer to a large bowl; stir in scallions, eggs, flour, 1 teaspoon coarse salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper.
  • Using a packed 1/4-cup measure of potato mixture per pancake, shape into 12 mounds. With hands, form each into a firm ball; transfer to a baking sheet. With palm, flatten balls into 3/4-inch-thick cakes.
  • In a large skillet, heat oil over medium until hot (see note, below). Using a metal spatula with a thin blade, carefully transfer 6 cakes to skillet; flatten to about 1/2 inch thick. Cook until golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Transfer pancakes to a paper-towel-lined plate; sprinkle with coarse salt. Repeat with remaining cakes. Serve immediately, with sour cream, if desired.
