Sweet Potato Latkes



Gourmet | December 2001
Yield: Makes about 26 pancakes
Active Time: 30 min
Total Time: 30 min
1 lb sweet potatoes, peeled and coarsely grated
2 scallions, finely chopped
1/3 cup all-purpose flour [I used more like 2/3 cup of flour]
2 large eggs, lightly beaten [I used 3 eggs]
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
3/4 cup vegetable oil


Stir together potatoes, scallions, flour, eggs, salt, and pepper.
Heat oil in a deep 12-inch nonstick skillet over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking. Working in batches of 4, spoon 1/8 cup potato mixture per latke into oil and flatten to 3-inch diameter with a slotted spatula. Reduce heat to moderate and cook until golden, about 1 1/2 minutes on each side. Transfer latkes with spatula to paper towels to drain.
* I found this recipe to be too wet so added the additional egg & flour to it to make it stick together better.  I served with sour cream as well.
