Zucchini + Potato Latke with Whipped Feta and Caviar

Zucchini + Potato Latke with Whipped Feta and Caviar

This holiday classic is packed with flavors worth celebrating. 

Ingredients

  • 1 pound medium zucchini

  • 1 large baking potato (3/4 pound), peeled

  • 1 small onion (4 ounces), peeled

  • 1/2 cup matzo meal / ½ cup gf flour

  • large egg, lightly beaten

  • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice

  • 1 1/2 teaspoons salt

  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper

  • Canola oil, for frying

  • 2 large carrots, cut in half crosswise, or frying

  • Whipped Feta (See recipe)

  • Caviar

Whipped Feta

  • 8 ounces feta cheese, crumbled

  • 3/4 cup whole milk Greek yogurt

  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for serving

  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

  • 1 garlic clove

Directions

  1. Halve the zucchini crosswise. If using a food processor, remove the seedy center and coarsely grate. If using a box grater, grate lengthwise until you reach the seedy center. Discard the zucchini center. Repeat with the potato and onion.
  2. Transfer the grated zucchini, potato and onion to a colander or dish towel and squeeze dry. Let stand for a few minutes, and squeeze again to remove extra liquid. 
  3. Place the vegetable mixture in a large bowl. Add the matzo meal, egg, lemon juice, salt and pepper. Stir to combine.
  4. Heat 1-2 inches of oil until it shimmers. Then prepare a sheet pan with a wire rack or paper towels for cooling.
  5. Add 1-2 carrot halves to your pan to help keep the oil from burning. Using a spoon, scoop packed teaspoons of the zucchini mixture into the skillet and flatten them. Cook the latkes over moderately high heat until the edges are golden, about 1-3 minutes. Flip and cook until golden on the bottom, about 1 minute. Once cooked, drain on a wire rack or paper towels. Repeat with the remaining zucchini mixture, adding more oil to the skillet as needed.
  6. Once cool enough to handle, top with whipped feta and a scoop of caviar.
  7. Whipped Feta
    In a food processor or blender, place the feta, yogurt, olive oil, lemon juice, and garlic. Pulse until creamy. Mixture can be kept in the fridge for up to 3 days
