“Sweet potatoes make delicious fried treats for Hannukah! I like to add a little variety to the traditional latke spread.” - by Harriet

Original recipe yields 8 latkes

Directions

  1. Place sweet potatoes in a colander. Place a cheesecloth over the potatoes, and squeeze the potatoes to release as much liquid as possible. Let the potatoes sit to release more liquid, then squeeze again.
  2. In a large bowl, combine sweet potatoes, eggs, brown sugar, flour, cloves and cinnamon; mix well.
  3. Heat oil in large heavy skillet to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  4. Form mixture into pancake size cakes, and fry in hot oil. Flip cakes after 2 to 3 minutes (when bottom is browned) and brown other side. Drain on paper towels, and serve piping hot!

"These were tasty, easy, and cheap, which are my three requirements these days (I live in nowheresville Peru on a peace corps volunteer salary). I love that it snuck some protein in with the eggs, and..." See more I actually got a meal of GOOD carbs, instead of white bread, white rice, or pasta. I didnĀ“t have cloves, so I left that out, and I made Pineapple sauce to serve with it. An excellent recipe that I will use a lot!"
