Ingredients
- Chives
- 2 tablespoons, finely chopped
- Sour cream
- 1 cup, for serving
- Vegetable oil
- 1/2 cup, for frying
- Black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon
- Salt
- 1 teaspoon, additional to taste
- Eggs
- 2, beaten
- Onion
- 1 medium, grated
- Potatoes
- 2 medium, peeled and shredded
- Zucchini
- 1 large, shredded
- Cabbage
- 1 small head, shredded
- All-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup
Instructions
- Place the shredded cabbage, zucchini, and potatoes in a colander. Sprinkle with salt, mix well and let sit for 10 minutes to draw out excess moisture.
- After 10 minutes, squeeze the cabbage, zucchini, and potatoes to remove as much liquid as possible. Transfer them to a large bowl.
- In the same bowl, add the grated onion, beaten eggs, flour, additional salt, and black pepper. Mix well until everything is evenly combined.
- Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, scoop about 1/4 cup of the latke mixture, flatten it into a pancake shape, and place it in the skillet. Repeat with the remaining mixture, ensuring there's space between each latke.
- Cook the latkes for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until both sides are golden brown and crispy.
- Using a slotted spoon, transfer the cooked latkes to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
- Serve the latkes hot, garnished with chopped chives and a dollop of sour cream on the side. Enjoy!
Tips
- For a healthier version, you can bake the latkes at 425°F (220°C) for 15 minutes on each side or until golden brown and crispy. You can also experiment with different types of vegetables, such as carrots or sweet potatoes.
