These latkes are so delicious! We had these as a side dish to baked chicken and there wasn't a scrap left. Quick and easy too when using your food processor for grating all the veggies. Thanks chia, definite keeper...I'll be doing these again!

We really enjoyed these. I forgot to add any salt though I would recommend that you do add a bit. I made the cream with fat free sour cream and about 3 tsp. of horseradish which was the correct amount for us. I think next time I will cook them a little longer in the pan (like 5 minutes a side) to get them a little crisper. But they were crisp on the outside and soft on the inside with a lovely flavor from the vegetable mix.
