Parsnip Fritters Recipe ingredients

• (Left over parsnips)
• 1 cup of parsnip puree
• 1 egg, beaten light
• Salt pork or bacon fat
• ¼ teaspoonful of salt
• ¼ teaspoonful of pepper

To prepare this Parsnip Fritters Recipe, first press the cooked parsnips through a gravy strainer, set into part of a double boiler (into which it fits). Use a wooden pestle; to the puree add the salt, pepper and egg (often the white may be omitted, the yolk being sufficient to hold the pulp together) and mix thoroughly; shape into small flat cakes. Have ready a frying pan containing a little hot fat; cook the cakes until brown on one side, then turn to brown the other side.
