A satisfying and quick dish for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Use potatoes instead of parsnips for an equally delicious alternative and slightly more traditional taste. Wonderful when served with rhubarb chutney, applesauce or yogurt.

Instructions
- Peel and grate celeriac. Wash and grate parsnip (or potato). Finely chop red onion.
- Combine celeriac, parsnips and onions in a bowl.
- Add flour, salt and pepper. Stir to evenly distribute. Beat eggs and then add to mixture.
- Add several tablespoons of oil to a heavy skillet and place over medium heat. While oil is heating, form vegetable mixture into patties approximately 2–3 inches in width. Add to hot oil. Fry for about 5 minutes then flip and cook the second side. When done, remove from pan and blot on paper towels before serving. Add more oil to cook remaining batter. Serve with rhubarb chutney, applesauce or yogurt.
