I talk about food a lot. And other stuff.

But mostly food.

Carrot Parsnip Sunchoke Cakes

My CSA is giving me lots of ideas and new ingredients to play with.  The first week I got sunchokes and parsnips.  Here's what I did with them:

Carrot Parsnip Sunchoke Cakes, two ways.


1) Chop and steam veggies


Mash 'em with a fork


Dredge in flour, salt and pepper
Patty
Fry



2) Grate veggies, mix with one egg


One egg to rule them all, and in the darkness bind them.
Patty
Dredge
Fry

Side by side taste test.  Both delicious.  I liked the toothiness of the grated one better.


Also good with bacon and eggs.*

*of course.

  1. I loooove sunchokes. Have you tried roasting them? They caramelize really beautifully on the outside & get super soft and creamy inside. So good.
