Step by Step Method

Step 1

Meanwhile, in a large saucepan add in the peeled parsnips then cover with water. Bring to a boil and boil only for 5 minutes. Drain then run them under cold water to cool them quickly, then drain again very well.

Step 2

Grate the parsnips in a food processor fitted with the larger grating disk.

Step 3

In a medium bowl, combine the grated parsnips, 1/2 cup chopped leek, garlic and egg. Stir in the flour, pepper, seasoned salt, and cayenne.

Step 4

In a 10-inch heavy skillet, heat a generous amount of oil and 1 tablespoon butter over medium-high heat.

Step 5

Shape the parsnip mixture into 8-10 equal balls, place into hot oil then press on each with a fork to make a patty about 3 1/2 inches wide.

Step 6

Reduce the heat to medium and cook until browned on one side (about 4-5 minutes). Turn the cakes over and brown the other side. Flip to recrisp the first side, about 30 seconds.

Step 7

Remove to paper towels to drain fat.

Step 8
