For extra crispy latkes, ensure the sweet potato is as dry as possible after rinsing.
Do not overcrowd the pan when frying; cook in batches to maintain even browning.
Feel free to experiment with spices! A pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg adds a lovely warmth.
If the mixture seems too wet, add a tablespoon of flour (all-purpose or gluten-free) to help bind the latkes.
