Latke is Jewish cuisine which associated with
cuisines of many European and Middle Eastern century. It is the national dish
of Belarus. Generally Latke is potato pancakes are shallow fried snack of grated
potatoes, flour, eggs and flavored with onion and seasoning and serves with
sweet apple sauce and salted sour cream or cheese.

This time I prepared Vegetable latke with
apple sauce and sour cream, it’s an eggless version of latke in which I used
grated potatoes, carrots and onions and combine with cornflour and seasoning. For
sour cream, we have to used whipped cream with seasoning and lemon flavour but I
used hung curd instead of cream. Apple sauce is a puree form which prepared
with blanched apple and sugar.
