This vegan alternative is easy to make and just as tasty.

  • Total Time: 28 minutes
  • Yield: 15 latkes

Ingredients

Units
  • 2 lbs yukon gold potatoes, grated
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 cup chopped cilantro
  • 1 large garlic clove, grated
  • ¼ tsp black pepper
  • 2 tsp onion powder
  • 2 tsp turmeric
  • cups vegan mayo
  • ¾ cups vegetable oil for frying

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 °F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper
  2. Place grated potatoes in a colander with a bowl or plate underneath. Sprinkle 1 tsp of salt on the potatoes and mix well. Let stand for 10 minutes (the potatoes will release some liquid)
  3. Using a cheesecloth or a clean kitchen towel, ring out excess moisture from the grated potatoes (make sure to squeeze out as much liquid as possible)
  4. Add garlic, salt, pepper, turmeric, chopped cilantro and vegan sandwich spread and mix well until well combined with the potatoes. Using your hands, form about 15 small latkes
  5.  
  6. Heat about ¼ cup of oil in a non stick skillet skillet and drop about 5 latkes at a time. Cook at medium heat, 3-4 minutes per side or until golden brown. Place them on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess oil. Repeat the process two more times, using ¼ cup of oil each time.
  7. Place latkes on the lined baking sheet and bake for 15-20 minutes or until crispy.
