A great recipe traditionally made with potatoes, although you can use any veggies in this recipe. These flavoursome grated baked latkes are crispy on the outside and nice and soft on the inside.

Notes
You can use other grated vegetables.
For a crisper latke, instead of baking, fry in a little extra virgin olive oil.
