Sometimes, it’s fun to change up traditional foods a little. Turkey Bacon Potato Latkes are a smoky savoury version of our traditional latkes. You’ve still got the potatoes and oil; but with a little something extra.
I chose kosher turkey bacon because it’s less fatty and less rich than its kosher beef bacon counterpart. And of course, for my family, which consists of those who eat everything, vegetarians, and I’m feeling “picky” today eaters, I also make a vegan bacon counterpart from tempeh bacon. Serve these Turkey Bacon Potato Latkes with onion marmalade and/or cranberry sauce and you have delicious hors d’oeuvres or a side dish for Chanukah and all year round.
Hint: If you are preparing both vegan and turkey bacon at the same time- fry the vegan bacon first so you don’t have to clean the pan in between the vegan and turkey bacon frying.
