Steps:
- Rinse one bunch of swiss chard (about 8-10 large leaves) well making sure to remove all traces of dirt along the stems. Roughly chop the stems along with the leaves. You may choose to remove the stems, if you prefer, and reserve them for another use.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. If using, add the stems first and boil for 2 minutes. Add the leaves and boil for 1 minute longer. Remove with a slotted spoon and transfer to a bowl to cool.
- In a large bowl combine eggs; flour; baking powder; water; salt and pepper. Whisk the ingredients until smooth. The batter will have a thick, pancake like consistency. If it is too thick, add extra water 1 tbsp. at a time.
- Squeeze some of the water (it does not need to be completely dry) out of the swiss chard and add to the batter along with the grated parmesan.
- Heat vegetable oil on medium high heat in a large skillet. Spoon batter (about 2 tablespoonfuls) into the hot oil. Cook until browned, about 2 minutes. Flip with a spatula and cook until the underside is browned, about 2 more minutes.
- Transfer to a paper towel lined tray to absorb excess oil. Serve hot or at room temperature

SWISS CHARD AND HERB FRITTERS
These golden brown fritters, which come from Shvil's Tunisian-Jewish family, are bursting with fresh flavor, thanks to a generous helping of Swiss chard, parsley, cilantro, and dill. They're especially delicious as part of the traditional Sephardic Rosh Hashanah seder meal.

Steps:
- Season chard with 1/2 tsp. salt. Let sit in a colander 10 minutes. Squeeze out excess water with your hands. Transfer to a cutting board and chop.
- Finely grind coriander and caraway seeds in spice mill or with mortar and pestle. Finely chop cilantro, dill, and parsley.
- Toss chard, ground coriander and caraway seeds, herbs, onions, breadcrumbs, harissa, pepper, and 1/2 tsp. salt in a large bowl. Beat 3 eggs to blend in a small bowl, then stir into chard mixture.
- Working 3 Tbsp. at a time, portion chard mixture into round, flat patties (you should have about 25 total). Transfer to a rimmed baking sheet or plate.
- Shape 3 tablespoons of the mixture into round flat patties. Repeat with the remaining mixture.
- Pour oil into a large heavy skillet to a depth of 1/4" and heat over medium until shimmering. Beat remaining 3 eggs to blend in a medium wide shallow bowl.
- Dip each patty into egg, letting excess drip back into bowl. Working in batches, fry patties until set and a golden brown crust forms, 3-4 minutes per side. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate; season with salt.
- Serve immediately or at room temperature with yogurt alongside, if using.
SWISS CHARD FRITTERS
This recipe, adapted from "Jerusalem," by Yotam Ottolenghi and Sami Tamimi, appeared in The Times in 2012 as part of a Hanukkah food article. It is packed with fragrant dill and cilantro, and studded with feta. The fritters would go well with smoked salmon and a little yogurt, or a garlicky spread of beets, dill, walnuts and horseradish that pulls from the Ashkenazi tradition. Either way, they are a great vegetable counterpoint to the starchier dishes of Hanukkah. They cook fast, and should be served warm.

Steps:
- Tomatoes: Preheat oven to 325 degrees. In a 9-inch pie plate, place tomatoes and garlic cloves. In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, balsamic vinegar, thyme, light-brown sugar, and salt. Drizzle over tomatoes and garlic and bake in the oven until tomatoes are wilted and caramelized, 40 to 45 minutes. Set aside.
- Frittata: Increase oven temperature to 425 degrees, with the rack in the upper third of the oven. Lightly beat eggs in a large bowl with a whisk. Season with salt and pepper; set aside.
- In a 12-inch nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add onions, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring, until tender, 12 to 15 minutes. Reduce heat to medium and add the stems of the chard; cook until tender, 3 minutes. Add the chard leaves and stir to combine. Cook until wilted, about 1 minute. Pour egg mixture into skillet. Cook, using a heatproof spatula to gently stir and push eggs from edges to center of pan so runny parts run underneath, until eggs begin to set, about 2 minutes.
- Scatter cooked tomatoes on top of the frittata and evenly distribute feta cheese on top. Transfer frittata to oven and cook until top is set and has puffed slightly, about 15 minutes.
- Gently run a spatula around the edges and underneath the frittata and carefully slide out of the pan onto a cutting board. Slice into wedges and serve hot, warm, or at room temperature.

- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil, add greens and simmer for 5 minutes. Remove from pot and drain well, patting leaves dry with a paper or kitchen towel.
- Place chard in food processor with herbs, nutmeg, sugar, salt, pepper, flour, garlic and eggs. Pulse until well blended. Fold in feta by hand.
- Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large sauté pan over medium-high heat. When oil is hot, spoon in 1 heaping tablespoon of mixture for each fritter (you should be able to fit three fritters per batch). Note: Even though there are more than three fritters pictured in the pan above, I would stick to cooking three at a time. I find these fritters a little tricky to flip, and the key is to make sure that you have space to flip but also to make sure the fritters are golden and crisp before flipping. Press down gently on fritter to flatten. Cook 1 to 2 minutes per side, until golden brown. Transfer to a baking sheet lined with paper towels. Add another tablespoon oil to pan and repeat. Serve warm, with lemon wedges (optional).
