Can you put turnips into latkes along with grated apple?

Answer 1

Apparently you can! Here's a recipe:

Green Apple & Turnip Latkes

8 cups coarsely grated raw turnips
2 cups green apple, coarsely grated
10 eggs
6 tablespoons wheat bran
1 teaspoon black pepper, (or to taste
1 to 2 teaspoons salt, or to taste
olive oil

Mix all the ingredients thoroughly in a large bowl. Heat oil in a large flat bottomed pan or griddle. Drop by spoonfuls onto griddle being careful not to overcrowd. Cook on medium or medium high heat until dark golden brown on one side. Flip and repeat on the other side. If they aren't golden brown, you need more oil. Use a flat slotted spatula to remove finished latkes on to a plate with a paper towel on it. Add more oil in between each batch. Makes around 20 latkes.

Answer 2

I would not go for the turnips--try a Scandinavian-style turnip and apple bake with some butter, sugar and onion instead. I suggest grated carrots and onion, grated celery, grated apple and maybe some sunflower seeds.

Answer 3

My philosophy: you may put whatever you wish.
Mix a tiny bit in the first one in a small bowl, and then see if you like it..if not cook the rest without! It sounds good to me.
