Sweet potato latkes – Vegan
About:
Latkes are potato pancakes that are traditionally fried in oil. “I love the challenge of taking a traditional dish and tweaking it in such a way that you arrive at something new and different”
Health Benefits:
Sweet potato, not only is just sweet to your taste buds but also good for your cardiovascular health! It is an edible, underground tuber initially cultivated in the Central American region. This crunchy, starch root vegetable is rich source of flavonoid anti-oxidants, vitamins, minerals, and dietary fiber that are essential for optimal health.
I served these latkes with soy ginger sauce (recipe link)

Mushroom Chaat
About:
This is an easy recipe where the Portobello’s/mushrooms are stuffed or topped with potatoes, chickpeas and chives. This makes a fast and filling dish where this recipe can be served as an appetizer or a party snack. Here the Portobello’s are stuffed with regular potato filling and I used chickpeas along with potato to make a crunchy addition. Using chaat masala, cumin powder, black salt gives the feel of chat and so I would love to call this as a mushroom/Portobello chaat. Chutney can be included if desired (link)
