  • 1 cup plain flour
  • 1 egg, separated

How to make hot parsnip fritters on baby spinach

  • Peel the parsnips, bring to the boil in a pan of salted water and simmer for 10 to 15 minutes, until tender but not in the least mushy.
  • Drain, cool and cut diagonally into slices about 2 inch.
  • Put the flour in a bowl and make a well in the centre.
  • Put the egg yolk in the well and mix in with a fork.
  • Add the milk, while continuing to mix in the flour.
  • Season with salt and black and cayenne peppers, and beat with a whisk until the batter is smooth.
  • Put the spinach leaves in a bowl.
  • Mix the oils and vinegar.
  • Season with salt and pepper.
  • When you are ready to serve, whisk the egg white to soft peaks, fold in a little of the yolk batter, then fold the white into the batter.
  • Heat the oil for frying.
  • Shake the dressing vigorously, then toss the salad in the dressing.
  • Arrange the leaves on 4 plates and scatter with walnuts.
  • Dip the parsnip slices in batter and fry until puffy and golden.
  • Drain on kitchen paper and keep warm.
  • Arrange the fritters on top of the salad leaves.
  • Deep-frying brings out the luscious sweetness of parsnips, and their flavour is perfectly complemented by walnut-dressed baby spinach leaves.
