These are addictive. The recipe calls for peanut oil but any good quality cooking oil will do. I got this recipe from a homeschooling list that I'm on. Make them one batch at a time. Can be an appetizer or main course depending on the size you make them. Adjust spices as your prefer. Some like these with hot curry powder.

Tips for Making Curried Sweet Potato Latkes

- Choose the right potatoes. Starchy potatoes, such as Russet or Yukon Gold, are best for latkes. They will hold together better than waxy potatoes, such as red or white potatoes. - Shred the potatoes coarsely. This will help them to cook evenly. - Be sure to squeeze out as much of the excess liquid from the potatoes as possible. This will help the latkes to be crispy. - Use a combination of all-purpose flour and matzo meal. This will help to bind the latkes together and give them a crispy texture. - Season the latkes generously with curry powder, salt, and pepper. You can also add other spices, such as cumin, coriander, or turmeric. - Fry the latkes in hot oil until they are golden brown and crispy. - Serve the latkes immediately with your favorite toppings.

Conclusion

Curried sweet potato latkes are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They are a great way to use up leftover potatoes or sweet potatoes. With their crispy texture and flavorful curry seasoning, these latkes are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
