The batter for this snack has to be of the right consistency--not too wet, not too dry--when you spread it out for rolling, so test a spoonful of it on a plate first.James Oseland

Sweet Potato Fries
The pale yellow, thin-skinned sweet potato and the moister, orange-fleshed American "yam" (which is not really a yam, but another kind of sweet potato) both work well for these alternatives to conventional french fries.Helen Rosner

Chicken Flautas

Flautas, flavorful miniature tacos that are a perfect finger food, are usually deep-fried until fully cooked. In this recipe the corn tortillas get just a brief flash-fry, just to soften them for filling and rolling, and are finished in the oven, which both saves hands-on time and keeps them a bit healthier than their retail counterparts. See the recipe for Chicken Flautas »

Roasting cauliflower at a high heat results in a crisp-tender texture and toasty flavor that pairs perfectly with tart tahini dipping sauce. See the recipe for Roasted Cauliflower with Tahini Sauce »Todd Coleman

Made using a batter similar to crêpes, Sri Lanka's crispy-edged rice flour hoppers are formed into edible bowls and filled with toppings ranging from onion sambol to a simple steamed egg.Todd Coleman
