This recipe has been posted for Culinary Quest - Ireland recipe by Margaret Johnson. Margaret says - I've always loved potato cakes, so when I was served parsnips cakes at a friend's country kitchen in Cork I wondered why I hadn't thought of this delicious idea before.

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 lb parsnips, peeled and sliced
2 Tbsp all-purpose flour
2 Tbsp butter, melted
pinch of mace
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
flour, for dredging
egg wash
1/2 c breadcrumbs
vegetable oil, for frying

Steps:

  • 1. In a saucepan, cook the parsnips in boiling salted water until tender, 12 to 15 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to rest for 5 minutes to absorb stock. Drain and mash.
  • 2. Add the flour, melted butter, mace, salt, and pepper to the parsnips and blend well.
  • 3. Shape mixture into 4 evenly sized cakes. Lightly dredge in flour, pass through egg wash, then bread crumbs.
  • 4. In a large fry pan over medium high heat, heat the oil. When hot, cook cakes on each side until golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes.
  • 5. Serve immediately, or transfer to a baking sheet and keep warm in a preheated 300°F oven for 4 to 5 minutes longer.

These parsnip cakes were a bit bland for my taste. I think I would add some more herbs and spices next time.

These parsnip cakes were a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would reduce the amount of sugar next time.

I made these parsnip cakes last week and they were delicious! The only change I made was to add a bit more salt and pepper. I will definitely be making these again.
