Turnip Fritters

26. June 2009 by ilene.

CSA members received purple top turnips today in their CSA share. I'll get you a photo soon.

Here is a popular recipe that a dear CSA member named Mareena contributed years ago, and its

still a favorite. Mareena moved south but the turnip fritters recipe continues to stay close

to the farm. By popular demand:

Turnip Fritters

2-1/2 cups shredded turnip (peel it first)

1 onion, chopped finely (the recipe called for scallions which I didn't

have)

2 c. flour

1 c. chicken broth (I also didnt' have this so I used water)

1 t. salt

Mix it all up.  Drop by tablespoonful into hot oil--we have a FryDaddy, but

if you did it in a wok the recipe calls for about a cup of oil--and cook

until golden brown.

Dipping sauce--3 T. light soy sauce and 3 T. sweet wine vinegar or cider

vinegar.
