White starchy yucca is good for you.

Yucca pancakes. Latkas

Ground up with onion, pepper and salt.
Eat them plain, or with a good malt.

Eat them hot, or take them to go.
You should try them, and then you'll know,
How healthy it is, how sweet yucca tastes.
You'll eat them all up, none will you waste.

Light the candles, and pour some great wine,
Then, on yucca latkas I'm sure you will dine.

And if not tonight, write this recipe down.
They make the best latkas in all of the town.

On the fifth night of Chanukah a green latka we eat. Made from zucchini, a spectacular treat. Mixed up with egg and matzo meal fine. Spiced to perfection it tastes so divine.

Fried until crispy with a perfect green sheen. These latkas I tell you are fit for a queen. Eat them plain or with a savory dip. You must enjoy them hot so decide very quick.

That's all for tonight, let's meet again soon. Good night my dear friends goodnight my friend 🌒 moon.

Night Number Two: Apple Latkahs

On the Second Night of Chanukkah Something Sweet: Apple Latkahs

Start with freshly peeled Granny Smith apples. Grate them using your preferred method either by hand with a simple box grater or food processor. We opted for the electric version.

Add a little egg and some brown sugar. Heat the oil in a heavy skillet and fry until golden brown. They will look like this.

Served up with a savory dinner of fried rice towers, broccoli, steak cut sweet potatoes, Chicken nuggets, and medium steak strips. Served on your finest China or festive disposables. The choice is yours.

I hope you give this a try and let me know how it goes.
