Wow, a double post tonight. To celebrate Hanukkah, I decided to make some latkes and followed a recipe that I found on Pinterest. OMG, this was the best recipe ever!! Here's the link to the recipe for Cilantro-Jalapeno Latkes. I took some pics because they turned out so great. The weren't too hot, just the right amount of heat. You've got to give them a try, well worth the effort...
Yummo!!
I provided the link to the original post, but thought I would also share the recipe. Thanks Prudence Pennywise for the wonderful recipe.

Estimated Cost: $4.00 for six servings
6 tablespoons light sour cream
1 tablespoon chopped chipotle chile, canned in adobo sauce

1 cup grated fresh onion
6 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro
2 tablespoons finely chopped seeded jalapeño pepper

1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup olive oil, divided
Preparation
