Beet And Carrot Latkes Food

CARROT-AND-BEET LATKES

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, combine onion, lemon juice, and eggs. Add flour, salt, and pepper, and stir until incorporated. Add carrots, beets, and potato, and toss until combined and evenly coated.
• Fill a large skillet with about 1/2 inch oil. Place over medium heat until oil is almost smoking. (To test, drop a small bit of batter into the skillet; it should sizzle upon contact.)
• Working in batches so as not to crowd skillet, carefully spoon about 2 tablespoons batter into oil for each latke. Lightly tamp down to flatten. Cook, turning once, until golden on each side, 2 to 3 minutes. Using a slotted spatula, transfer to a paper-towel-lined wire rack to drain. Repeat with remaining batter. Serve immediately with sour cream and applesauce.

BEET AND RED ONION POTATO LATKES WITH CARROT PUREE AND HORSERADISH AND CARAWAY CREME FRAICHE

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a medium saucepan, over medium heat. Add the carrots and saute for 2 minutes. Stir in the carrot juice and simmer until the liquid has reduced by 5/6. Put the carrot mixture in a blender and puree until smooth. Transfer to a serving bowl and serve at room temperature.
• Mix all of the ingredients in a small bowl and let sit, ideally for 24 hours in the refrigerator. Serve cool.
• Using the grating attachment in a food processor, grate the potatoes, onions, carrot and beet separately. Coat a small saute pan with a little oil and put it over low heat. Add half of the grated onions and saute them slowly until caramelized, soft and sweet. Using a colander, squeeze all the excess liquid out of the remaining vegetables and then combine all of the ingredients in a mixing bowl.
• Add the 2 cups of oil to a medium skillet and heat it to 370 degrees F. Put 2 ounces of the latke mixture into the oil and cook until brown on 1 side, approximately 2 minutes. Using a slotted spoon or spatula, flip the latke and continue to cook until brown on the other side. Remove from oil to a paper towel covered tray and immediately season with salt, to taste. Continue with the remaining mixture. Arrange the latkes on a serving platter and serve immediately with the carrot puree and the horseradish and caraway creme fraiche.

BEET-AND-POTATO LATKES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F. Set a wire rack on a rimmed baking sheet. Peel and rinse the potatoes, then grate on the large holes of a box grater into a colander set over a large bowl. Grate the onion into the colander; season with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Squeeze the potato mixture with your hands to remove as much liquid as possible, transferring the mixture to a paper towel-lined plate as you go. Wipe out the bowl. Blot the potato mixture dry with paper towels and return to the dry bowl.
• Peel the beet and grate on the large holes of the box grater; add to the bowl with the potato mixture. Add the egg, matzo meal and parsley and stir to combine. Scoop tablespoonfuls of the potato mixture and tightly pack into 1-inch pancakes (about 24); transfer to a large plate.
• Heat 1/4 inch schmaltz or vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Working in batches, add the pancakes and fry until browned and crisp, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet; sprinkle with salt and keep warm in the oven (or serve at room temperature). Top as desired.

BEET AND CARROT BLINIS

Steps:

• For the pickled carrots: Shave the carrot into ribbons using a vegetable peeler. Blanch in boiling water for 30 seconds. Drain, refresh in cold water, then place on a clean tea towel or paper towel to get rid of excess water.
• In a large bowl, mix together the mirin, brown rice vinegar, sesame oil, agave and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Add the carrot ribbons and toss to coat in the marinade. Set to one side to infuse for about 30 minutes.
• For the blinis: Sift the buckwheat flour, all-purpose flour, beetroot powder and baking powder into a medium bowl. Add a pinch of salt and mix together. Make a well in the middle of the dry ingredients and then pour in the plant-based milk and 1 tablespoon of olive oil and whisk until it forms a smooth batter. If the mixture is a little thick, add a tablespoon more of the milk.
• Heat a lightly greased large frying pan over low heat. (Test if the pan is hot enough by using a drop of batter and see if it sizzles). Drop teaspoons of the batter into the hot pan, swirling with the back of the spoon to slightly flatten the batter into even circles. As soon as bubbles appear on the top, about 1 minute, flip over and cook for 1 to 2 minutes longer. Remove from the pan and put on a serving plate. Fry the remaining batter in batches. Allow to cool.
• To serve: Spoon 1/2 teaspoon of the vegan cream cheese on top of each blini. Roll a ribbon of carrot around your finger and place on top. Garnish with micro herbs and serve.
