I love a crispy, crunchy latke, straight out of the hot oil. I like making mine out of a mixture of potatoes, sweet potatoes and parsnips for a little extra flavor and nutrients. They are perfectly complemented by the spiced applesauce and cool herbed sour cream. Serve with sparkling wine for a real treat!

Ingredients
Latkes:
Spiced Applesauce:
Herbed Sour Cream:
Directions
- For the latkes: Preheat the oil in a 10- to 12-inch cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Line a baking sheet with a cooking rack or paper towels.
- Use the grater attachment of a food processor to grate the parsnip, russet and sweet potato. Add the grated vegetables to a large bowl along with the flour, salt and onion powder. Toss to coat everything in the flour mixture. Crack in the egg and stir well until it is entirely mixed.
- Use a 1/4-cup dry measure or a 2-ounce scoop to scoop 3 to 4 latkes into the hot oil. Cook until dark golden and crispy, about 4 minutes per side. (Monitor your heat to make sure they are not cooking too fast or burning on the edges. Shifting between medium and medium-high will help you keep the desired heat. Because there are sweet potatoes and parsnips, the latkes will be a little darker and more caramelized than a standard potato latke.) Transfer the cooked latkes to the prepared baking sheet.
- For the spiced applesauce: Meanwhile, mix the applesauce, ginger, spices and salt in a small bowl.
- For the herbed sour cream: Mix the sour cream, herbs and garlic salt in another small bowl.
- Serve the latkes warm with the sauces.
