Step by Step Method
Step 1
Place grated sweet potato and onion in a large sieve. Drain off excess moisture and squeeze dry.
Step 2
In a large bowl, combine sweet potatoes and onion with egg, flour, salt and pepper.
Step 3
In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of the oil over medium heat. Working in batches, scoop 1 1/2 teaspoons vegetable mixture into your hand and form into a small patty.
Step 4
Slip patty into hot oil and brown one side, 2 to 3 minutes. Turn and cook the other side until golden, about 2 minutes more. Repeat with remaining vegetable mixture, adding more oil to pan as needed.
Step 5
Place latkes on prepared baking sheet loosely covered with foil and keep warm in preheated oven.
Step 6
Before serving, top latkes with a small spoonful of Caramelized Onions and top with cheese. A tiny piece of a sprig of thyme is the finishing touch.

Add a splash of balsamic vinegar, if desired.
