EXPERIMENT
I love love love potato farls! Any excuse to make them with leftover mashed potato whenever I can.
I wondered if it was possible to make parsnip farls.. we have lots of home grown delicious parsnips this year...!
I took 2 medium / large parsnips boiled and mashed with butter then added plain flour until the dough was stiff enough to roll out..
I perhaps misguidedly decided (since it was February when I did this) to use my heart shaped cutter but the dough was not strong so they all got a bit misshapen!
I fried them both sides. The difference between parsnip and potato it seems is the sweetness. The parsnip caramelised slightly as it cooked, so "caught" but it was super tasty!! We all loved them for lunch and Baby B gobbled them up!
REFLECTION
I'll definitely do them again but I'll add more flour, probably use self raising flour (so that they rise slightly) and I won't use my heart shaped cutter!
