Ingredients

  • 6 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 medium Idaho potatoes unpeeled, scrubbed well (1 pound, about 2 cups shredded)
  • 1 head cauliflower about 2 cups shredded
  • 3 eggs beaten
  • 2 tablespoon corn meal
  • 2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon coarse black pepper
  • Garnish: applesauce Greek yogurt with zaatar

Instructions

  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
  • Cut potatoes lengthwise into halves or quarters so they fit into food processor feed tube. Process potatoes using the blade that creates thin, shoestring-like strips and transfer to a large bowl.
  • Add shredded cauliflower, eggs, cornmeal, salt and pepper and mix well
  • Drop 6 to 8 spoonfuls of mixture into hot oil. Using the back of a spoon, pat down each latke to flatten it. Put as many as you can in the skillet without crowding. Putting them too close together will make them soggy.
  • Fry 3 to 4 minutes on each side, until golden and crisp around the edges; repeat procedure until finished with all the batter.
  • Remove latkes to a paper towel lined baking sheet.
  • Serve with homemade no sugar applesauce.
