Parsnip and Carrot Latkes (Vegetable Pancakes) image

A new twist to a traditional Jewish dish - Serve instead of potato latkes at Chanukah, or in addition. These vegetable pancakes are beautifully colorful and very tasty. They go wonderfully with sour cream. The gluten-free rice flour mix I use is 3 cups white rice flour, 3 cups brown rice flour, 2 cups potato starch (not flour), 1 cup tapioca starch - Use just one cup of this mixture. If you can eat gluten, use just 1/2 cup of matzo meal instead.

These latkes were a bit too greasy for my taste. I think I'll try baking them next time.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my latkes turned out mushy. I think I might have added too much liquid.

These latkes were a little bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more herbs and spices next time.

I've never been a big fan of parsnips, but these latkes changed my mind. The combination of parsnips and carrots is perfect, and the latkes are perfectly crispy. I'll definitely be making these again.
