Subj : Parsnip Fritters To : All From : Ben Collver Date : Sun Jul 07 2024 13:03:11 MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06 Title: Parsnip Fritters Categories: Vegetables Yield: 14 Fritters 7 Parsnips (1-1/2 lb) 1/2 ts Salt 1/2 ts Sugar 1/8 ts Nutmeg; grated or ground 1 ts Sack (sherry) 1 1/2 ts Flour 2 Eggs 1 Egg yolk 1/2 c Whole milk 1/2 c Heavy cream 3 tb Butter; for frying Peel the parsnips and cut them into small pieces (approximately 1"). Put them in a pot filled with water and bring it to a boil. Reduce to a low simmer and boil for about 20 minutes (until parsnips are tender and easily pierced with a fork). Drain parsnips and put them in a large mixing bowl. Mash the parsnips until they have a regular consistency with no large chunks. Season this mash with salt, sugar, nutmeg, and sack. Add the flour and eggs. Finally, pour in the milk and cream and stir until a slightly chunky batter forms. Heat a cast iron skillet or large frying pan. Add butter to the skillet and lower the heat to medium. Use a 1/4 cup measure to pour cakes into the pan. (I could fit four cakes at a time in my twelve-inch cast-iron skillet.) Cook for 3 minutes on the first side and 2 minutes on the second side. The fritters should be golden brown and slightly crispy. Repeat this process until you have cooked all your batter. Make sure the pan is still buttery before you start each batch. Serve hot. Recipe by Marissa Nicosia Recipe FROM: MMMMM .
