Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Jerusalem artichokes
- 200 grams Potatoes
- 1 large Egg
- 60 grams Breadcrumbs
- 50 grams Parmesan cheese, grated
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 clove Garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
Instructions
Peel and clean the Jerusalem artichokes and potatoes. Grate them using a coarse grater and place them in a bowl of cold water for about 5 minutes to remove excess starch.
Drain the grated vegetables and transfer them to a clean kitchen towel. Squeeze out as much liquid as possible to ensure the patties hold together.
In a mixing bowl, combine the grated Jerusalem artichokes and potatoes with the egg, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, parsley, garlic, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until the mixture becomes cohesive.
Form the mixture into small patties, about the size of your palm and 1.5 cm thick. You should be able to make 8–10 patties depending on size.
Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, place the patties in the skillet, leaving some space between them.
Cook the patties for 4–5 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy. Make sure they are cooked through but not burned.
Remove the patties from the skillet and transfer them to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
Serve the patties warm as a side dish or with a fresh salad and a dollop of yogurt or sour cream for a light meal.
