Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Line baking sheet with parchment.

Cut spaghetti squash in half. Scrape out seeds. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Bake cut side down until tender, about 1 hour.

When cool enough to work with, using a fork, scrape strands of spaghetti squash into a large bowl. (You should get about 5 to 6 cups of squash.)

Add onion, garlic, ginger, and salt and pepper. Lightly toss. Add eggs. Stir. Sprinkle with baking powder, and then 1/3 cup flour. Mix gently to combine, adding more flour if mixture is too wet.

Heat a large non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Add 2 tbsp. vegetable oil and 2 tbsp. butter. When butter starts to melt, cook latkes in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan. For each latke, spoon 1/4 cup squash mixture into pan. Flatten with spatula and cook until golden brown on each side, about 3 minutes per side. Garnish with paprika and micro greens, if desired. Serve with Curry Yogurt Dip.
