Potato Pancakes also called Latkes is a traditional recipe that many Jewish families will share during Hanukkah. Olive oil has a rich presence in the Hanukkah origin as it was a small flask of oil that was to last only one day that actually lasted 8 days, the same number of days Hanukkah itself last.
