Parsnip Golden Beet Latkes Recipes

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine onion, orange zest, salt, cayenne, and black pepper. Add eggs, and stir until incorporated. Stir in flour until incorporated. Add parsnips and potato, and toss until combined and evenly coated.
• Fill a large skillet with about 1/2 inch oil. Place over medium heat until oil is almost smoking. (To test, drop a small bit of batter into the skillet; it should sizzle upon contact.)
• Working in batches so as not to crowd skillet, carefully spoon about 2 tablespoons batter into oil for each latke. Lightly tamp down to flatten. Cook, turning once, until golden on each side, 2 to 3 minutes. Using a slotted spatula, transfer to a paper-towel-lined wire rack to drain. Repeat with remaining batter. Serve immediately with sour cream and applesauce.

Steps:

• For the applesauce: Combine the apples, lemon zest, lemon juice, apple cider, 5-spice powder and sugar in a large saucepan over medium heat; stir to combine. Cook until the apples begin to break down but are still chunky, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool.
• For the latkes: Grate the sweet potatoes and parsnips on a box grater and transfer to a large bowl. Season with salt and toss to combine. Add the flour and stir to distribute evenly. Add the eggs and stir well. Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large saute pan over medium heat. Working in batches, form the potato mixture into 3-inch latkes that are about 1/2-inch thick. Add the latkes to the hot oil in a single layer and fry until golden brown on both sides and cooked through, about 4 minutes per side. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate and season with salt. Repeat the frying, adding more fat as necessary.
• Serve the latkes with the applesauce, sour cream and scallions.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 200 degrees F.
• Whisk flour, baking powder, salt and pepper in a large bowl.
• Squeeze dry the beets in a clean kitchen towel. In the large bowl with flour, toss beets together with parsnips. Stir in the eggs.
• In a large skillet over medium-high heat, warm oil.
• For each latke, drop 1/4 cup of mixture into skillet and cook, pressing with a spatula to flatten. Cook until golden brown, 4-5 minutes per side.
• Keep warm in 200F oven until ready to serve.
• SAUCE.
• Stir horseradish and parsley into sour cream and serve on the side.

Steps:

• Grate potatoes and parsnips using large holes of box grater; place on center of large clean kitchen towel. Bring up ends of towel and twist together to form a pouch. Holding pouch over sink, squeeze out excess moisture from vegetables. Place vegetable mixture in large bowl. Add onions, egg, flour, 2 Tbsp. of the dill weed, the salt and pepper; mix well.
• Heat oil in medium nonstick skillet on medium-high heat. For each latke, carefully spoon 1 tablespoonful of the vegetable mixture into skillet, cooking two to three latkes at a time. Immediately spread each mound into thin circle with back of spoon. Cook 3 to 4 min. on each side or until golden brown on both sides. Remove latkes from skillet; drain on paper towels. Repeat with remaining vegetable mixture.
• Serve each latke topped with 1 tsp. of the sour cream. Sprinkle evenly with remaining 1 Tbsp. dill weed.

Steps:

• Peel and remove ends from parsnips and carrots.
• Grate parsnips and carrots by hand or with your food processor's grater attachment.
• Place in large bowl.
• Puree onions and garlic in food processor and add to vegetable mixture.
• Add remaining ingredients and mix well.
• Heat 1/2 inch of olive oil in a heavy pan until right before the oil's smoking point.
• Add 1/4 cup of batter at a time to the hot oil, pressing gently with the back of the spatula until each pancake is 1/2 inch thick.
• Cook until the exterior is crispy and a dark golden brown in color (approximately 2 minutes).
• Flip and cook on the second side.
• Remove with slotted spatula and place on plate lined with several layers of brown paper or paper towel.
• Serve hot.
