Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 lb parsnips, peeled and sliced
2 Tbsp all-purpose flour
2 Tbsp butter, melted
pinch of mace
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
flour, for dredging
egg wash
1/2 c breadcrumbs
vegetable oil, for frying

Steps:

  • 1. In a saucepan, cook the parsnips in boiling salted water until tender, 12 to 15 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to rest for 5 minutes to absorb stock. Drain and mash.
  • 2. Add the flour, melted butter, mace, salt, and pepper to the parsnips and blend well.
  • 3. Shape mixture into 4 evenly sized cakes. Lightly dredge in flour, pass through egg wash, then bread crumbs.
  • 4. In a large fry pan over medium high heat, heat the oil. When hot, cook cakes on each side until golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes.
  • 5. Serve immediately, or transfer to a baking sheet and keep warm in a preheated 300°F oven for 4 to 5 minutes longer.

These cakes are way too expensive for what you get. You can get a much better deal at the grocery store.

I'm not a huge fan of parsnips, but I really enjoyed these cakes. The parsnip flavor is subtle and it's balanced out by the other ingredients.

These cakes are a great way to use up leftover mashed parsnips. I always have a bunch of mashed parsnips left over after Thanksgiving and Christmas, and these cakes are a great way to use them up.

These parsnip cakes were a hit at my dinner party! They were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, with a delicious savory flavor. I served them with a dollop of sour cream and a sprinkle of chives, and they were gone in minutes.
