Leek and Beef Latkes With Beet Salad

Meat, potatoes and oniony goodness successful 1 bladed helping: Is this different occurrence for Hanukkah? Not exactly. Israeli-born Washington caterer Vered Guttman says these latkes are a Sephardi crockery that's fashionable among Jews successful the Balkans. They are made year-round and served connected Rosh Hashanah and adjacent Passover (made with matzoh repast alternatively of breadstuff crumbs).

Leeks are the main ingredient, which makes these latkes special. But due to the fact that they are fried (oil is important astatine Hanukkah), Guttman suggested trying them for the Jewish vacation that begins astatine sundown Friday.

The speedy earthy beet crockery is Guttman's creation: "It's bully to person thing caller adjacent to immoderate latkes, a opposition to the fat," she says. We agree.

Ground sumac lends a nutty tartness to the salad. It is disposable astatine Middle Eastern markets; the crockery is bully without it, too.
