Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

10 ounces frozen asparagus (Thawed) -- cut into 2 inch chunks

1 cup chopped scallions with tops

1 tablespoon dried chervil

2 large eggs -- slightly beaten

3 tablespoons flour

1/2 teaspoon salt -- (1/2 to 3/4)

1/4 teaspoon white pepper

oil for frying

 

Squeeze as much water as possible from the asparagus, place in a processor bowl

with the scallions, chervil, eggs, flour, salt and pepper, and process until the

mixture looks pale green and silky. Heat on medium hot heat no more than 1/8

inch of oil in a large skillet. It's ready when a drop of the mixture dropped in

the oil sizzles. Fry in 1/4 cup amounts, flattened with a spatula, for 3-4

minutes on each side over medium heat until crisp and nicely brown. Add oil as

required, but remember the less oil there is, the more quickly the latkes cook.

Drain on paper towel, serve with sour cream or humus, and enjoy, enjoy, enjoy.

Makes 6-8 latkes.
