One of the most well-known dishes of Hanukkah is latkes-potato pancakes cooked in symbolic olive oil. You can use a food processor's shredding blade for fast preparation. Serve latkes with applesauce and reduced-fat sour cream. Ingredients:
2 tablespoons olive oil |
1/4 cup grated fresh onion |
1 pound shredded peeled baking potato |
1/2 pound shredded peeled sweet potato |
1/2 cup all-purpose flour (about 2 1/4 ounces) |
1/3 cup finely chopped green onions |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper |
1 garlic clove, minced |
1 large egg, lightly beaten |
cooking spray |
green onion strips (optional) |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 425°. 2. Drizzle a jelly-roll pan evenly with oil, tilting pan to coat. 3. Combine grated onion and potatoes in a sieve; squeeze out excess moisture. Lightly spoon flour into a dry measuring cup; level with a knife. Combine potato mixture, flour, and next 5 ingredients (through egg) in a large bowl. Divide mixture into 8 equal portions, squeezing out excess liquid. Shape each portion into a 1/4-inch-thick patty; place on prepared pan. Lightly coat tops of patties with cooking spray. Bake at 425° for 12 minutes. Carefully turn patties over; cook 30 minutes or until lightly browned, turning every 10 minutes. Garnish with green onion strips, if desired. |
