Frugal Food Thursday: Garden Vegetable Latkes
Happy Chanukah! Here's a yummy recipe for Garden Vegetable Latkes. I originally got this recipe from the South Florida Sun-Sentinel. It adds a little extra nutrition to the traditional fried potato pancakes eaten as part of the 8-day celebration. They're great served with applesauce (like my crockpot raspberry applesauce) and/or sour cream.
Garden Vegetable Latkes
3 large all-purpose potatoes, peeled
1/2 large onion, peeled
1 medium zucchini
1 medium yellow squash
2 medium carrots, peeled
4 eggs
1/2 cup flour
1/2 cup matzo meal or fresh bread crumbs
1 tsp kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup canola oil
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. With a food processor, grate potatoes, onion, zucchini, yellow squash, and carrots in batches. Place grated vegetables in a medium-sized mixing bowl. Add 2 eggs and flour and mix to combine. Put mixture into a colander sititng in the sink and wait for 10 minutes for the liquid to drain.
Press liquid out of mixture and put into a dry bowl. Add remaining 2 eggs, matzo meal, salt, and pepper. If mixture is too loose, add a bit more matzo meal.
Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat and add oil. Place spoonfuls of mixture into hot oil Press gently with back of spoon to flatten. Saute 5 to 6 minutes until golden brown. Turn pancakes over and cook until golden brown on the other side. Transfer to a baking pan and keep warm in the oven. Continue to make pancakes, adding more oil as necessary.
Makes 10 to 12 servings.

I love the idea of garden vegetables in latkes! Your recipe sounds delicious. I've linked up my Mom's very frugal but incredibly delicious garlic bread recipe.
Thanks for this recipe! I'm always looking for alternatives to the usual Jewish foods for hiolidays!
Happy Chanukah to you! I will try these latkes for the last night of the holiday. I will also try to come up with a post for your link up next week.
I remember trying latkes for the first time. They are so good! Sorry I don't have something to add to your carnival but I will keep it in mind the next time I do a more frugal recipe. Thanks!

I love adding vegetables to the more common potato latkes. It adds something special. I would like to try your version of this latke. Thanks for sharing this on the linky for My Meatless Mondays.
