Instructions
Combine all of the ingredients for the tahini lemon sauce in a bowl and whisk together. Set the bowl aside.
Grate the sweet potato and the apple into a large mixing bowl. Squeeze as much liquid out of the grated sweet potato and apple as possible and transfer the squeezed mixture into a clean bowl. Add the onion, salt, arrowroot, spelt flour, De La Rosa avocado or grapeseed oil, turmeric, and pepper. Mix to combine.
Heat a cast iron pan (or another skillet) over medium-high heat. Add approximately 2 tablespoons De La Rosa avocado or grapeseed oil and when the pan is hot, take a handful (about 1/4 cup) of the latke batter and squeeze it together into a flat-ish round patty. Place it on the hot pan and press down on it with a spatula. Cook for 2-4 minutes per side, until golden brown and crispy. Transfer to a plate or wire rack covered in paper towel to cool.
Repeat until all of the latkes are cooked (you can place the cooked ones in the oven at 200°F to keep them warm while cooking). Serve hot with plenty of sauce.
