What is a vegan recipe for potato 'latkes'?

Answer 1

VEGAN LATKES

Makes about 3 dozen

You can find recipes for traditional latkes, in which the grated potato is held together with eggs, almost anywhere, so I thought I'd offer my vegan version. In it, the grated potato is held together with something just as sticky as eggs (oatmeal!) and it works splendidly. I've also added a carrot for extra color. * 2/3 cup quick-cooking oats (oatmeal) * 6 large potatoes, peeled and finely grated * 1 medium carrot, grated * 1 medium onion, finely grated * l/2 cup matzo meal * Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste * Light vegetable oil for frying * Applesauce In a heatproof bowl, combine the oats with 1 1/3 cup boiling water. Stir and set aside while preparing the other ingredients.

Combine the grated potato, carrot, and onion, and matzo meal in a mixing bowl. Stir in the oatmeal, then season with salt and pepper.

Heat just enough oil to coat the bottom of a large, nonstick skillet or griddle. Drop enough potato batter to form 2 1/2- to 3-inch pancakes. Fry on both sides over medium-high heat until golden brown and crisp.

Drain briefly on paper towels and place in a covered container to keep warm until serving. Serve warm with applesauce.
