Ingredients
- 2 medium Parsnips
- 2 medium Russet potatoes
- 1 small Yellow onion
- 2 large Eggs
- 0.25 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 0.5 cup Neutral oil (like vegetable or canola oil)
- 1 cup Sour cream
- 2 tablespoons Prepared horseradish
- 1 tablespoon Fresh dill
Directions
Step 1
Peel the parsnips and potatoes and shred them using a box grater or a food processor with a grating attachment.
Step 2
Place the shredded parsnips and potatoes in a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth. Squeeze out as much liquid as possible to ensure the latkes stay crispy.
Step 3
Grate the onion and combine it with the shredded parsnips and potatoes in a large mixing bowl.
Step 4
In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs. Add the eggs, flour, salt, and black pepper to the bowl with the vegetables. Mix thoroughly until evenly combined.
Step 5
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add enough oil to create a thin layer for frying.
Step 6
Scoop about 2 tablespoons of the mixture per latke and carefully place it into the hot oil. Flatten each latke slightly with a spatula.
Step 7
Fry the latkes for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy. Work in batches to avoid overcrowding the skillet.
Step 8
Transfer the cooked latkes to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt while still warm.
Step 9
In a small bowl, mix sour cream and prepared horseradish to create the horseradish cream. Adjust the amount of horseradish to taste if desired.
Step 10
Serve the latkes warm, topped with horseradish cream and garnished with fresh dill, if using.
