Parsnip Fritters


This is a really easy dish where the sweetness of the pasnip works really well with the saltiness and the rosemary taste of the oil. You can serve this with rustic bread, or just on its own.

4-5 parsnips
1 egg
50gr flour
olive oil (mild), salt, pepper, rosemary

Boil the parsnips until tender - and then mash. Mix the mash with one egg, some salt & pepper and some flour (about 50gr). Form small pancakes and fry the fritters with a little oil in frying pan until golden brown.
In a cup mix salt, some olive oil and rosemary. With a brush quickly brush a little of the savory oil on each fritter before serving.

A tip: As I was a bit early and made too many fritters in one go, I left some of the fritters in a warm oven (100C) for about an hour. They tasted just as good as the freshly made ones and did not become dry.
