Another good option for latkes is sweet potatoes. And if, like some folks in this household, you are avoiding large quantities of fat, they taste very good done in the oven. I put them on non-stick foil on a cookie sheet and spray the tops with olive oil spray. They bake at 350 for about 15 minutes, until the tops are looking lightly browned, then they get flipped and the other side sprayed. Another quarter hour's baking and you have sweet potato latkes that are crisp and flavored by olive oil, but don't actually have very much oil to them at all. :)
Happy midwinter holiday of your choice, and may you have a happy and healthy New Year.
