Amount Ingredient
3 tbl plain yogurt
2 tbl sour cream
1 sm chile pepper seeded, minced
2 tbl fresh lime juice
1 lb sweet potatoes peeled, grated
2/3 cup minced onion
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp freshly-ground black pepper
2 x eggs beaten
5 tbl flour
2 tbl butter or olive oil
Instructions:
Instructions: In a small bowl, combine yogurt, sour cream, chile pepper, lime juice, and salt and pepper to taste. Stir well and set aside.

In a large bowl, combine sweet potato, onion, salt and pepper. Add eggs; mix well. Add flour and mix again.

In a large skillet, heat butter or olive oil over medium-high heat. (Do not use a non-stick skillet or latke crust will be too thin.) Divide potato mixture in half; drop the halves into skillet to form two cakes. (If your skillet cannot hold both latkes, cook them one at a time.) Flatten latkes with a large spoon until they are about 1 inch thick and about 5 inches in diameter. Fry 4 to 5 minutes until they are deep brown on the underside, then flip and cook for 3 to 4 minutes more.

Serve hot, garnished with chile-lime sour cream and scallions.
