Sweet Potato Latke Sandwich – Oven baked alternative to the regular fried latke.
I grew up eating latkes more than often. We would eat them savory with sour cream and salmon or sweet with sour cream and sugar. Latkes reminds me my childhood.
After multiple try, I came up with this recipe because I love sweet potatoes even more than I love potatoes. Its also much healthier than the regular alternative.
Latkes definitely make me think of Hanukkah. So no better time than now to share this recipe. And how fun is it to make a sweet potato latkes sandwich with them?
I share this recipe in an interview, explaining my background and where do I come from.
