Every child at Hanukkah time wants to get in on the holiday action....from making Hanukkah decorations to cooking up special holiday treats.
One of the most traditional foods at this time of year is a fried potato pancake know as latke or leviva in Hebrew.
The recipe is simple enough and your kids can help no matter what their ages. Just provide some adult supervision with the grating and frying, and you're sure to enjoy a wonderful holiday cooking experience....not to mention a tasty treat.
Serve with applesause, powdered sugar, or just plain (my personal favorite)!
