Time 2h15m

Yield Four servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

8 medium turnips, peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes
4 nickel-size slices of fresh ginger, peeled and lightly smashed
2 teaspoons Oriental sesame oil
2 teaspoons unsalted butter
3/4 teaspoon salt
Freshly ground pepper to taste
6 tablespoons all-purpose flour
Cornmeal, for dusting
1 small cod fillet
Olive oil spray
1 thin slice smoked salmon, cut into 1/8-inch-thick strips
3 tablespoons minced scallions (green part only)

Steps:

  • Place the turnips and ginger in a large saucepan and cover with cold water. Add the sesame oil and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat and simmer until the turnips are tender, about 20 minutes. Drain. Return the turnips to the pan and set over low heat until dry, 7 to 8 minutes, stirring often to prevent sticking.
  • Remove the turnips from the heat. Add the butter and mash with a hand masher until the turnips are slightly lumpy. Stir in the salt, pepper to taste and the flour. Set aside to cool.
  • Shape the turnip mixture into 8 3-inch-wide patties. Dust with cornmeal. Cover with a towel and refrigerate for 1 hour. Let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes. Meanwhile, steam the cod fillet until done, about 10 minutes. Cut into 1-inch pieces.
  • Spray a large nonstick skillet with olive oil. Heat over medium heat until hot. Add as many of the pancakes as will fit without overcrowding. Cook until browned on both sides, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a heated serving platter and keep warm until all of the pancakes are cooked. Top each cake with a piece of cod. Coil the strips of smoked salmon and set 1 atop each piece of cod. Sprinkle minced scallions over all. Serve immediately.

These pancakes were a bit too salty for my taste, but the flavor was good. I think I would try them again with less salt.

These pancakes were easy to make and turned out great! I used a mix of cod and haddock, and it was delicious. The pancakes were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. I served them with sour cream and chives, and they were a hit with my fami

I'm not a fan of fish, but I really enjoyed these pancakes. The pancakes were light and fluffy, and the cod and smoked salmon were cooked perfectly. I would definitely make these again, even without the fish.

I loved the idea of these pancakes, but they didn't turn out as well as I hoped. The pancakes were a bit too thick and dense, and the cod and smoked salmon were a bit overcooked. I think I would try them again with a thinner batter and cook the fish
