Best 6 Jerusalem Artichoke Pancakes Recipes

JERUSALEM ARTICHOKE PANCAKES

Steps:

• Line 2 baking sheets with waxed paper or aluminum foil. Grate onions and artichokes in food processor with shredder attachment or by hand on box grater. Transfer to roasting pan or large bowl.
• Crack eggs into small bowl. Add maple syrup, nut oil, salt, peppers and nutmeg. Whisk together and pour onto grated vegetables. Mix lightly with fingers. Sprinkle flour over surface and mix lightly with fingers. Form into 16 3-inch pancakes about 1/2-inch thick, placing each on baking sheet when it is shaped.
• In large heavy-bottomed skillet or griddle, heat half the vegetable oil and 1 tablespoon butter over medium heat. Cook half the pancakes until golden brown, 5 to 7 minutes a side. If pancakes brown too quickly, lower heat to cook them through. If skillet or griddle becomes dry, add more oil. Remove pancakes to paper towel-lined baking sheet. Add remaining oil and butter and cook remaining pancakes. Cover finished pancakes loosely with foil and hold in a warm oven until ready to serve.

JERUSALEM ARTICHOKE PANCAKES

Steps:

• Peel artichokes and place in bowl of water mixed with lemon juice as you work.
• In large skillet, melt butter and cook shallots over medium heat for about 2 minutes or until softened but not browned.
• Meanwhile, in medium bowl, beat eggs and stir in parsley, salt and pepper. Stir in shallots.
• Using fine grater or grating attachment of food processor, grate artichokes; immediately stir into egg mixture. (If grating by hand, grate artichokes back into bowl of acidulated water so they will not darken. Drain well in sieve, then dry well by squeezing in tea towel.).
• In skillet, heat half the oil. For each pancake, spoon about 2 tablespoons of batter into skillet, leaving at least 1 inch between pancakes. Flatten with spatula and cook over medium heat until golden and crisp, 3 to 4 minutes on each side. Place on hot platter and keep warm in 250°F oven. Add more oil to skillet as necessary when cooking remaining pancakes. Serve with sour cream. Makes 6 to 8 pancakes.

• NOTE: Jerusalem artichokes are tubers and have a potato-like texture often recommended as a potato substitute for diabetics. Just as with potatoes, they can be baked, boiled, steamed, fried, and stewed. However, they will cook faster than potatoes and can easily be turned to mush in a matter of minutes if you do not monitor them closely. Keep your eye on them and remove them from the heat source as soon as you can easily pierce them with a skewer.
• They are recommended as a potato substitute for diabetics since they are filling but not absorbed by the body, and because they also show indications of assisting in blood sugar control. High in iron, potassium and thiamine, low-fat sunchokes also feed the healthy bacteria (lactobacilli) in the intestinal tract.

OVEN-ROASTED JERUSALEM ARTICHOKES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven at 350 degrees F. Cut the artichokes in half. In a bowl, mix everything together. Put on a baking tray, flesh-side down and bake in the oven for 45 minutes or until caramelized and tender.

ROASTED JERUSALEM ARTICHOKES (OR SUNCHOKES)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Scrub Jerusalem artichoke tubers and cut out eyes. Cut tubers into 1-inch pieces.
• Mix olive oil, thyme, garlic, and sea salt together in a large bowl; add Jerusalem artichoke pieces and toss to coat. Arrange coated pieces in one evenly-spaced layer on a baking sheet.
• Roast in the preheated oven until Jerusalem artichokes are tender, 35 to 45 minutes.

JERUSALEM ARTICHOKE GRATIN

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375 degrees. Scrub Jerusalem artichokes, and slice 1/4 inch thick. Bring milk and 1 cup water to a boil. Reduce to a simmer, add slices, and cook until tender but crisp, 8 minutes. Drain, and arrange in a buttered baking dish.
• In a small saucepan, bring cream, garlic, nutmeg, salt and pepper to a boil. Remove garlic, and pour mixture evenly over artichokes. Sprinkle with cheese. Bake in upper level of oven until bubbling and lightly browned, about 20 minutes.

YUKON GOLD POTATO AND JERUSALEM ARTICHOKE LATKES WITH APPLE-HORSERADISH MAYONNAISE AND TARAMASALATA

Steps:

• Make the apple-horseradish mayonnaise:
• In a medium bowl, stir together the horseradish, applesauce, vinegar, mustard, and mayonnaise. Season with salt and pepper. DO AHEAD: The sauce can be made and stored, in an airtight container in the refrigerator, up to 3 days.
• Make the latkes:
• Line a large bowl with a clean cloth napkin or lint-free kitchen towel.
• Working in batches, use the larger side of a box grater or a food processor fitted with a grater attachment to coarsely grate the potatoes, Jerusalem artichokes, and onion. As they're grated, transfer the vegetables to the towel-lined bowl. Gather the corners of the towel and wring as much excess liquid as possible from the vegetables. Transfer the wrung vegetables to a dry mixing bowl. Add the egg and parsley and stir to combine. While stirring the mixture, gradually add the flour, stirring well to incorporate.
• Line a large baking sheet with paper towels.
• In a large sauté pan over moderately high heat, heat 1/4 inch of oil until hot but not smoking. Test the latke batter by frying a small amount of batter in the hot oil-it should hold together and not fall apart when flipped. If necessary, add additional flour, 1 tablespoon at a time, but try to add as little flour as possible to create light latkes.
• Working in batches, drop 2-tablespoon-size dollops of batter into the hot oil and use the back of a spoon to press the batter into 1 1/2-inch diameter pancakes. Season with salt and pepper and fry until golden brown, about 2 minutes. Flip the latkes and continue frying until golden brown, about 2 minutes. As they finish cooking, transfer the latkes to the paper-towel-lined baking sheet.
• To serve:
• Arrange the latkes on a large plate or platter and top half with apple-horseradish mayonnaise and half with taramasalata. Sprinkle with minced chives and serve immediately.
