Zucchini Parsnip Latkes
- 5 medium zucchini ends trimmed
- 5 parsnip medium, about 5 inches long, ends trimmed, peeled
- 1 onion large, peeled
- 2 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
- 1 1/2 teaspoons crushed black pepper
- 1/2 cup arrowroot starch I use Bob's Red Mill Flours
- 1/4 cup white rice flour organic
- 1/8 cup sparkling water like Pellegrino
- grape seed oil or any other high heat tolerant oil
- coconut yogurt unsweetened
- chives minced
- Grate zucchini, parsnip, and onion in a food processor. Remove any large un-grated pieces and chop finely. Transfer into a large bowl.
- Add kosher salt, pepper, arrowroot starch, white rice flour. Stir well to combine.
- Add sparkling water and mix again until mixture feels mushy.
- Set a heavy bottomed stainless steel (for even heat) saute pan on high heat.
- Add about 1/2 inch high of oil to the pan.
- Note: To get your latkes crispy - without being greasy - heat your oil to 350 degrees F using a candy thermometer or wait until the oil appears thin and watery.
- Add a piece of grated vegetable to the hot oil, if it sizzles immediately (rising up) then it's ready for frying
- Grab a handful of the mixture and squeeze liquid between your hands as you squeeze into a ball like shape.
- Place into the hot oil.
- Do not press down at this point because it could fall apart. It will flatten when you flip it over.
- Cook about 3-4 minutes, or until dark golden brown
- Flip over and cook another 3-4 minutes or until dark golden brown
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F, if serving the same day.
- Transfer onto a stainless steel cooling rack (an oven safe cooling rack) set over a baking sheet.
- If your cooling rack is not oven safe, transfer onto parchment lined baking sheet instead.
- Bake for 10 minutes.
