SWEET POTATO AND PARSNIP LATKES WITH CHUNKY 5-SPICE APPLESAUCE



Sweet Potato and Parsnip Latkes with Chunky 5-Spice Applesauce image

Instead of the usual potatoes, make latkes with sweet potatoes and parsnips. They pair beautifully with the homemade applesauce, which has great flavor thanks to Chinese 5-spice powder.

Time 45m

Yield About 12 latkes

Number Of Ingredients 14

6 MacIntosh or Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored and cut into 1-inch chunks
1 teaspoon lemon zest
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon apple cider
1/2 teaspoon Chinese 5-spice powder
1 tablespoon sugar
1 pound sweet potatoes, peeled
1/2 pound parsnips, peeled
Kosher salt
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 large eggs
1/4 cup vegetable oil, plus more as necessary
Sour cream
1/4 cup scallions, thinly sliced on the bias

Steps:

  • For the applesauce: Combine the apples, lemon zest, lemon juice, apple cider, 5-spice powder and sugar in a large saucepan over medium heat; stir to combine. Cook until the apples begin to break down but are still chunky, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool.
  • For the latkes: Grate the sweet potatoes and parsnips on a box grater and transfer to a large bowl. Season with salt and toss to combine. Add the flour and stir to distribute evenly. Add the eggs and stir well. Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large saute pan over medium heat. Working in batches, form the potato mixture into 3-inch latkes that are about 1/2-inch thick. Add the latkes to the hot oil in a single layer and fry until golden brown on both sides and cooked through, about 4 minutes per side. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate and season with salt. Repeat the frying, adding more fat as necessary.
  • Serve the latkes with the applesauce, sour cream and scallions.

Categories     side-dish

Time 1h

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

6 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 pounds sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into large chunks
1 pound parsnips, peeled and cut into large chunks, any tough woody cores discarded
4 sprigs thyme
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg, plus more for topping
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1/2 cup half-and-half
1 teaspoon sherry vinegar

Steps:

  • Melt 3 tablespoons butter in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat; cook, stirring occasionally, until browned, about 5 minutes. Add the sweet potatoes, parsnips, thyme sprigs, nutmeg, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cook, stirring, until the vegetables are well coated.
  • Add 1/2 cup water and the half-and-half to the pot, cover and bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat to medium low and cook, stirring occasionally and adding 1/4 cup more water at a time if the pot is dry, until the vegetables are very tender, 30 to 35 minutes (at the end, there will not be a lot of liquid left).
  • Discard the thyme sprigs and transfer the vegetables and any liquid to a food processor. Add the remaining 3 tablespoons butter and process until very smooth. Add the vinegar and process to combine; season with salt and pepper. Transfer the potatoes to a serving dish. Sprinkle with more nutmeg.

1 large sweet potato, peeled and grated
½ onion, grated
2 eggs
¼ teaspoon black pepper
2 teaspoons olive oil, or more if needed
½ teaspoon salt
1 cup applesauce
1 cup plain nonfat yogurt

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 200 degrees F (95 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with paper towels.

Flatten the patties with a fork, and fry until golden brown and crisp on the bottom, 5 to 8 minutes. Flip and cook on the other side, sprinkle with salt, then set the cooked patties aside on the prepared baking sheet in the preheated oven while you finish cooking the latkes. Stir the potato mixture before cooking each batch of patties. Serve hot with applesauce and yogurt.
