Delicious - especially straight out of the frying pan! We tried several types of pancakes (onion, carrot, eggplant, etc.) but this won top awards after the onion. And the recipe is so easy to make. I will definitely be making these again.

    Good easy recipe - I added a few spices to the batter for extra flavour. A great accompaniment!

    You know when your 3 year old excitedly yells out to her father "Daddy, Daddy, come look. Mummy's making little pancakes for dinner. Oh WOW!" that you probably have a good recipe on your hands. I made 12 small pancakes/latkes which were demolished rather quickly by everyone including the 9 month old. I really liked this recipe because it is dead easy to prepare. I was worried that the latkes would fall apart but they held together really well. Best to be generous with the oil too and forget the calories and the fat content. Just drain them well later. Thanks Mirj for a great recipe.

    Very delicious. I love having another way to make sweet potatoes that is so fast and easy. As I was making these, I just couldn't resist putting in some finely chopped pecans and it turned out to be a good choice. This recipe makes enough latkes for several families, so I only made 1/3 of the original recipe and it worked just fine. Love these latkes, Mirj.
