SPINACH AND CURRANT LATKES
Classic latkes consist of grated potatoes, onions, and eggs, but it is kosher--and delicious--to include other vegetables, such as parsnips, sweet potatoes, or spinach, as long as you fry them in oil.

Steps:
- Melt butter in a large saute pan over medium heat. Add spinach, and gently saute until wilted, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a clean kitchen towel or paper towels, and wring out as much liquid as possible. Finely chop spinach, and transfer to a medium bowl.
- Add remaining ingredients through pepper, and stir well to combine.
- Fill a large, heavy-bottom 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; the oil should sizzle upon contact.)
- Working in batches so as not to crowd skillet, carefully spoon about 2 tablespoons batter into oil for each pancake. Lightly tamp down to flatten. Cook until golden on each side, 2 to 3 minutes, turning once. Using a slotted spatula, transfer to drain on paper-towel-lined rack, and repeat with remaining batter. Serve immediately with applesauce and sour cream, if desired.
EASY POTATO LATKES
Specially made for Hanukkah, latkes are potato pancakes that are fried in oil in recognition of the ancient lamps that held only enough oil for one day but miraculously burned for eight. Adding carrots, beets, parsnips, spinach, and currants also celebrates the past, when latkes were made with vegetables, cheeses, or fruits.

PARSNIP LATKES
Specially made for Hanukkah, latkes are potato pancakes that are fried in oil in recognition of the ancient lamps that held only enough oil for one day but miraculously burned for eight. Adding parsnips to the classic recipe also celebrates the past, when latkes, a side dish, were made with vegetables, cheeses, or fruits.

SPICY CARROT AND SPINACH LATKES
This dish would work as a low-carb alternative to traditional potato latkes. This blend yields 15 to 16 latkes. The addition of nigella seeds adds a nutty, addictive, flavor. As for toppings, you can use the classic sour cream or thick Greek style yogurt, or be a bit more adventurous and try a favorite chutney or raita, a mixture of yogurt and chopped cucumber with spices.

Steps:
- Begin heating a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Heat the oven to 300 degrees and line a sheet pan with parchment. Place a rack over another sheet pan.
- In a large bowl mix together the carrots, spinach, baking powder, salt, nigella seeds, chili powder, oat bran and matzo meal or flour. Taste and adjust salt. Add the eggs and stir together. If the mixture seems dry add a little more egg.
- Pack about 3 tablespoons of the mixture into a 1/4 cup measuring cup. Reverse onto the parchment-lined baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining latke mix. You should have enough to make 15 or 16 latkes.
- Add the oil to the pan and when it is hot (hold your hand a few inches above - you should feel the heat), use a spatula to transfer one portion of the latke mixture to the pan. Press down with the spatula to flatten. Repeat with more mounds. In my 10-inch pan I can cook three or four at a time without crowding; my 12-inch pan will accommodate four or five. Cook on one side until golden brown, about three minutes. Slide the spatula underneath and flip the latkes over. Cook on the other side until golden brown, another two to three minutes. Transfer to the rack set over a baking sheet and place in the oven to keep warm.
- Serve hot topped with low-fat sour cream, Greek yogurt or crème fraîche, or with other toppings of your choice such as chutney or raita.
