Directions

  1. Scrape the roots and let them lie in cold water a few minutes; boil in salt water till tender; mash thoroughly, picking out all the fibres; season with butter, salt and pepper. Beat an egg and stir in, and if not moist enough to work out into cakes, add a little milk. Make into cakes an inch thick, roll in flour and fry a light brown.
