About Latkes
Latkes are crispy potato pancakes originating from Ashkenazi Jewish cuisine, traditionally prepared during Hanukkah. Made from grated potatoes, onions, eggs, and flour or matzo meal, they’re seasoned with salt and pepper before being fried to golden perfection in oil. While their primary ingredients make them a good source of carbohydrates and provide some protein, their high oil content can make them calorie-dense and higher in fat. To boost nutritional value, some recipes incorporate sweet potatoes or zucchini, increasing fiber and vitamins. Latkes can be served with healthier toppings like applesauce or Greek yogurt, rather than heavier options like sour cream. Though traditionally fried, baking or air-frying them can reduce oil content and make them a more heart-friendly dish while maintaining their signature crunch.
