ZUCCHINI POTATO LATKES



Zucchini Potato Latkes image

I recently discovered this recipe on the web. Because of the miracle of the oil in the story of Chanukah, it's traditional to eat something oil-fried for the holiday. Latkes - potato pancakes - are the customary fried dish. This delicious version features zucchini in addition to the potatoes, and makes light, delicate pancakes. Perfect for the Festival of Lights, these are scrumptious as is, or with applesauce or sour cream. The 5-minute cooking time is per latkes. The servings indicated are for 32 large latkes or 72 cocktail size.

Categories     Potato

Time 35m

Yield 32 large

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 medium zucchini
4 large potatoes, peeled,cut to fit a food processor feed tube,and placed in bowl of water to prevent discoloration (see note)
4 eggs
2 -4 tablespoons flour or 2 -4 tablespoons fine matzo meal, during passover
1 large onion, quartered
2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill
salt
fresh ground black pepper
canola oil or other vegetable oil, for frying

Steps:

  • NOTE: For best latke consistency, half the raw potatoes are grated using the chopping blade of a food processor, half with its fine grating disc.
  • Or use a hand box-grater, grating half the potatoes on the large-hole side, the remainder on the fine-hole.
  • The latkes can be made cocktail size-they're great passed with drinks.
  • In a food processor fitted with a fine grating disk, grate the zucchini.
  • Squeeze out any extra liquid and place in a large bowl.
  • Grate half the potatoes in the food processor with the grating disc, or on the finest side of a box-grater, and squeeze out any liquid.
  • Quickly add the potatoes to the zucchini.
  • Add the eggs and the flour until the mixture is no longer runny and stir to blend.
  • In the processor fitted with a metal blade, pulse-chop the onion and remaining potato finely, or grate the potato only on the large-hole side of a box-grater and combine with the onions.
  • Add to the zucchini-potato mixture.
  • Add the dill and season to taste with the salt and pepper.
  • Stir to blend well.
  • In a large, heavy skillet, heat 1/8 to 1/4 inch of vegetable oil over medium heat.
  • Stir the batter if it appears to have separated.
  • When the oil is hot (a drop of the potato mixture added to it will sizzle immediately), spoon quarter-cups of the mixture, or tablespoons for cocktail lakes, into the oil.
  • Do not crowd.
  • Brown the pancakes on both sides, about 5 minutes total.
  • They are ready to be turned over when the sides are turning brown.
  • Drain them on brown paper or paper towels and keep warm while preparing additional batches.
  • Serve immediately.
  • 32 Large or 72 cocktail size.

BEST POTATO ZUCCHINI LATKES



Best Potato Zucchini Latkes image

The method for these latkes is what makes them stand apart from ordinary potato or potato zucchini latkes. These are so fabulous they even taste great cold!

Provided by Ashrei

Categories     Potato

Time 1h

Yield 24-36 latkes, 24-36 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 large potatoes, peeled
2 large zucchini, unpeeled
1 medium onion
1 tablespoon kosher salt
2 teaspoons blended herb seasoning mix or 2 teaspoons monterey style seasoning
6 eggs
1 2/3 cups flour
1/4 cup parsley
1/4 cup cooking oil

Steps:

  • Finely shred potatoes. Soak potatoes in cold water to remove starch. (A flour sack towel works well for this- place towel in a bowl with edges hanging over the sides. Put the potatoes in the bowl and cover them with cold water.) After 10-15 minutes squeeze out potatoes, rinse bowl, and repeat the soaking process one or two more times as needed to remove all the "pink," or "white" starch which sinks to the bottom of the bowl.
  • While potatoes are soaking finely chop the parsley, and finely shred the zucchini and onion. Put onion and zucchini in a colander to drain off excess juice. You can carefully press out even more juice. The key to the success of these latkes is washing the starch from the potatoes and removing any excess liquid from the vegetables.
  • After the final soak, squeeze out as much water as possible from the potatoes. If using a towel, then twist the top of the towel continuously, squeezing the potatoes into a ball, and wringing out all the fluid. Combine potatoes, zucchini, onion, parsley, salt, herb seasoning, eggs and flour in a large bowl and mix well.
  • Heat oil in a medium skillet until the surface is shimmering. Add large spoonfuls of latke batter to the oil and shape them into pancakes about 1/4 inch thick. Fry until golden brown (approximately 6 minutes each side).

BAKED ZUCCHINI POTATO LATKES



Baked Zucchini Potato Latkes image

this is probably not at all traditional but it is way healthier and very tasty. easy and quick enough to throw together after work and it will use up some of the garden's bounty. i just eyeball this so all measurements are approximate. feel free to improvise. you can use more or less potato and zucchini, you just may need to add a bit more egg or flour to get it to come together nicely.

VEGAN ZUCCHINI AND POTATO LATKES



Vegan Zucchini and Potato Latkes image

I made this the other day and really enjoyed this recipe. It's Vegan but if you want to use eggs instead of tofu it will work out fine. I used coconut oil in this because it not only lends a really nice flavour to the latkes but it can handle high heat.
