chanukkah doesn't start for a few days.. but a few evenings ago we were invited to an early channukah celebration with some people we met thru school. it was a potluck...
being in spain, i searched for a
sephardi chanukkah dish
i found a pretty easy (not quick.. but easy) recipe for keftes de espinaca or spinach patties. i used this
recipe from epicurious... and they turned out tasty.... they're the same BASIC idea as
ashkenazi potato latkes (the more known chanukkah food in the U.S.) but these are a lot lighter and far less annoying and stinky to make.
