Ingredients

Latkes:

• 1 (20 Ounce) Bag Refrigerated or Frozen and Thawed Shredded Hash Brown Potatoes
• 1 Tablespoon Dried Onion Flakes
• ¾ Teaspoon Salt
• ¼ Teaspoon Ground Black Pepper
• ¼ Cup Aquafaba
• ¼ Cup Potato Starch or Cornstarch
• Neutral Oil Spray, Such as Avocado or Grapeseed

Cashew Sour Cream:

• 1 Cup Raw Cashews, Soaked for 6 Hours and Thoroughly Drained
• 1/2 Cup Plain, Unsweetened Vegan Yogurt
• 1 Tablespoon Apple Cider Vinegar
• 1/2 Teaspoon Salt

Lentil Caviar:

• 1 Small Square Kombu
• 1 Tablespoon Liquid Aminos
• 2 Teaspoons Balsamic Vinegar
• 1 Teaspoon Olive Oil
• 3/4 Cup Water
• 1/4 Cup Black Lentils

Instructions

1. Place the hash browns in a large bowl and sprinkle the onion flakes, salt, and pepper on top, tossing to coat.
2. Separately, whisk the aquafaba and starch together until smooth before adding the mixture into the bowl of potatoes. Stir well to blend throughout, using your hands if needed.
3. Line the racks of your air fryer with foil and lightly grease with spray oil. Use a cookie scoop to portion out about 1/4 cup per latke. With a spatula, flatten latkes to about 1/4 thick. Spray oil on top to coat generously.
4. Air Fry at 375 degrees for 15 minutes, rotating the trays halfway through. Serve with cashew sour cream and lentil caviar.
5. To make the cashew sour cream, place all ingredients in your blender or food processor. Blend on high speed until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy, pausing to scrape down the sides of the canister as needed. Allow 5 - 8 minutes to get the mixture perfectly silky-smooth.
6. Transfer to a small dish to serve the vegan sour cream immediately or store in an airtight jar fridge for up a week. The mixture will thicken slightly as it sits and chills. Add a few teaspoons of water to thin and stir vigorously before serving.
7. For the lentil caviar, in a small saucepan over medium heat, combine all the ingredients and stir well. Bring to a boil, cover, and reduce the heat to low. Maintain a gentle simmer for 25 - 30 minutes, until the lentils are tender. Drain any remaining liquid and remove the kombu; discard or use in another recipe. Thoroughly chill the lentils before serving.
8. Stored in an airtight container in the fridge, the lentils will keep for 9 - 10 days.
