My favorite part of Hannukah is definitely the latkes. I mean, who doesn’t love a potato pancake? I sure as hell do. Usually, I’d just make the standard latkes, but for some reason, I have been lusting over curry like it’s an indian summer.
no?
ok.
So anyway, that and I had a butternut squash leftover with no plans for him. Sqeesh. Ok fine, that and I saw this recipe in a GASP Cooking Light, and thought – huh, this Mr. Light guy had a really great idea.

I made a modified version of this last night because I was too cheap to buy all the ingredients! Pretty tasty!
That's some seriously kickin' latkes. Great use of that leftover. Hope the honey appreciated them.
