Old World Recipe - Squash Latkes
From crainny 16 years ago
- 10 minutes to make
- Serves 4
If your kid doesn't like veggies, this might be a life saver. I prefer Mexican squash for its firmer texture and lighter color, but zucchini or yellow squash can be used as well
Ingredients
- 3 medium Mexican squash, zucchini, or yellow squash (see picture of the Mexican squash, if you don't know what it is) shopping list
- 2 eggs shopping list
- 1/3 cup sugar shopping list
- pinch salt shopping list
- 1/2 tsp baking soda shopping list
- all purpose flour shopping list
- cooking oil shopping list
How to make it
- Rinse the squash, chop off the navel and stem, if any.
- Shred the squash using a coarse grater
- Stir in eggs, salt, sugar, mix very well
- Add baking soda, stir some more
- Add flour in small batches until thick batter forms. It should be like buttermilk in texture, maybe a little thicker
- -
- Heat 4-5 tbsp oil in a skillet
- Spoon your latkes onto the skillet and fry over medium heat on both sides until pleasantly browned.
- -
- Serve with sour cream or plain yogurt on the side.
- Alternatively, dust some confectioner sugar over before serving
