These vibrant vegetable latkes offer a colourful and nutritious twist on the traditional Jewish fritter. By incorporating a medley of finely chopped seasonal vegetables, including courgette, carrot, and iron-rich spinach, this dish delivers a wonderful depth of flavour and a satisfyingly crisp texture. The use of whipped egg whites ensures the batter remains light and airy, while the matzo meal provides a classic, savoury base that holds the vegetables together perfectly.
This versatile vegetarian recipe is ideal for a light lunch, a festive side dish, or a wholesome snack for the whole family. The combination of fresh greens and aromatic spring onions makes these latkes feel remarkably fresh compared to standard potato versions. Serve them piping hot from the frying pan with a generous spoonful of chilled soured cream to balance the golden, pan-fried exterior.

How to make Vegetable Latkes
Back to contentsIn a large bowl, combine matzo meal, salt, and sugar. Set aside.
Separate egg whites and yolks. Beat egg yolks, and combine with water. Add the yolk mixture to the matzo meal mixture, and let it stand for 30 minutes.
Beat egg whites with an electric mixer until they are stiff, and fold them into the matzo meal mixture. Add grated onion, courgette, broccoli, spinach, carrots, spring onions, and sun- dried tomatoes if you're using them.
Heat corn oil until it sizzles in a deep skillet. Lower heat, and, using a cooking spoon, spoon batter into the pan, creating thin pancakes 3 to 4 inches in diameter. Fry for several minutes, turning when the pancake is firm and the bottom side is golden brown. Turn and fry for another few minutes until the other side is done. Drain on paper towel. Serve with soured cream.Occasionally stir mixture left in the bowl during the process of spooning latkes into the pan.
