Latke and Eggs
2 medium russet potatoes
1 cup shredded mixed root vegetables - turnips, carrots and parsnips
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons chopped green garlic (bulbs and greens)
1 egg beaten
2 tablespoons all purpose flour
1/3 cup oil (such as grapeseed or canola)
4 eggs
Freshly ground black pepper
Toppings
3 ounces good quality smoked salmon
1 medium, thinly sliced red onion
Sour cream
1 teaspoon Capers

1
Peel the russet potatoes and the root vegetables. Shred the vegetables either using a box grater or a food processor, anything works for the giant latke.
2
Mix the vegetables with the salt, and place over a colander for at least 30 minutes. Then squeeze out as much water as you can from the vegetables.
3
Mix in the garlic, beaten egg and the all purpose flour.
4
Heat a small cast iron pan (about 6 inches) and add about 1 tablespoon of the oil. Make sure both the pan and oil is very hot, before adding about 1/2 of the potato mixture. Spread evenly to allow the skillet to shape the pancake. Let the pancake cook on medium heat for at least 4 minutes, before flipping. You need to get a nice crisp crust without burning it.
5
Once all the pancakes are done place them on serving plates.
6
Begin cooking the eggs, one at a time.
7
In the meantime, top each pancake with a little smoked salmon, sour cream and sliced onions.
8
Add a fried egg and sprinkle with the capers.
9
Add some freshly ground black peppers and you are all done.
