I'm trying to come up with ways to cook turnips that don't involve roasting, stewing or mashing them, so I came up with this recently. It started as a potato pancake recipe from the Joy of Cooking, then changed when I tried it out. They came out rather sweet considering there's no sugar added... I'll definitely be eating these again. Good hot or cold.
Ingredients:
2 cups turnips, grated
2 tablespoons flour
3 eggs, beaten
2 tablespoons onions, grated
2 tablespoons salt
1/4 inch vegetable oil
Directions:
1. Grate turnips into colander.
2. Sprinkle grated turnip with salt; turn & mix to evenly distribute salt. Allow to sit for 10 - 20 minutes.
3. After resting, squeeze out as much liquid as possible. Move drained turnip to bowl.
4. Sprinkle turnips with flour; toss turnip to distribute flour.
5. Add 3 eggs. Stir to mix well.
6. Heat oil in pan until hot enough for frying.
7. Drop large spoonfuls of batter into oil; should flatten out into 3 patties. Fry until browned; then flip & cook until set & browned.
8. Drain on paper towels. Enjoy!
