Parsnip Pancakes
Phase II compliant, maybe phase I if you worked it a bit
Makes about 6
1/2 lb (1 large or two medium-small) parsnips, shredded
2 scallions, cut to 2-inch pieces and julienned lengthwise
1 egg, scrambled
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1/4 teaspoon black or white pepper, or to taste
2-4 tablespoons olive oil
optional dipping sauce:
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 teaspoon rice vinegar
Beat the egg in a medium-large bowl and combine with the rest of the ingredients except for the oi and the dipping sauce. Heat a tablespoon of oil on a skillet over a medium flame until hot. Using your hands, form the parsnip mixture into roughly 3-inch patties at a time, and place gently onto the pan, keeping each pancake an inch or so apart (you will probably need to work in batches). Cook for 2-3 minutes on the first side before flipping; flip, and cook another 2-3 minutes or until lightly browned on both sides. Remove from heat and serve with the optional dipping sauce immediately.
