Turnip latkes from Jana

vegetablesHanukkah

Ingredients

  • turnip — 1 pc (approx 0,5 kg)
  • egg — 2–3 pcs
  • flour — 100 g (depends on the turnip)
  • onion (white/red) — to taste
  • salt, pepper, paprika, whatever you like
  • butter (can be vegan)

Cooking method

Peel the turnip, cut it into chunks, and put it in a food processor (a blender is also very suitable), but if you’re okay with using a grater, you can grate it too.

Chop (or put in the processor) the onion. Mix the turnip, onion, and two eggs in a bowl (if the turnip is large or the eggs are small, add one more), mix well. Salt generously, add the spices. Add flour one tablespoon at a time, checking the consistency, you should get a batter that holds together but isn’t too thick, this isn’t a cake. (Sometimes turnip can be a bit dry, then add a couple tablespoons of water.)

Heat butter in a pan and spoon in your turnip latkes.

Fry 2–3 minutes on each side.

The taste is something between sweet potato and carrot latkes, slightly sweet, but very cool. Bon appétit!
