The celebrations of Hanukkah would remain incomplete without the delicious recipes of fried foods. Fried foods take the Jewish celebrants back to the 2,000-year-old miracle that turned one day's worth of candle oil into the eight days of light. So, get ready to indulge in tantalizing Hanukkah Recipes with DGreetings. |
Sweet Potato Latkes
Ingredients:
1 egg
2 medium sweet potatoes
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 to 2 tablespoons potato flour
1/3 cup brown sugar, packed
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
Sour cream
Sugared Pecans
Oil, for frying
Method:
Peel off the skin of the potato and cook briefly the potatoes in boiling water until they become slightly tender but remain firm. Chill the potatoes until cold. Mash the potatoes. Then add egg, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, potato flour and brown sugar. Mix until the ingredients are well blended. Coat the bottom of a non-stick skillet with 2 tablespoons oil. Shape latkes into patties. Cook until the potato latkes become brown on both sides and then transfer to paper towels to drain briefly. Add oil as needed to remaining batches. Before serving top the potato latkes with Sugared Pecans.
Deep Fried Baby Artichokes
Ingredients:
12 baby artichokes
2 lemons, halved
3 cups olive oil
Sea salt
Method:
Fill a big bowl halfway with water. Then, squeeze the lemon halves into the water. Trim the stem of 1 artichoke. Start trimming from the base, then bend the tough outer leaves back and pull off where they break naturally. Using a vegetable peeler, remove the dark green skin from the base. After that halve the artichoke lengthwise and scoop out any choke. Add the artichoke to the lemon water. Repeat the same procedure with the remaining artichokes. Heat the oil in a heavy large saucepan over medium heat. Drain the artichokes. Add the artichokes to the hot oil in two batches and cook until they become tender and golden brown. Then, with a slotted spoon or tongs, place the fried artichokes to a paper towel-lined dish to drain off the excess oil. Sprinkle with salt while artichokes are still warm and serve.
