Kohlrabi pancakes

Kohlrabi pancakes

Vegetable patties can be made from almost anything. Kohlrabi does not absorb moisture, so grated cheese and sour cream are used as a binder. The patties are very good and can be eaten hot or cold.

Ingredients · Servings 1 dose
  • 200 g sour cream
  • 150 g kohlrabi
  • 70 g ham
  • 2-3 tablespoons grated cheese (Eidam, Gouda)
  • 3 tablespoons plain flour (as needed)
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2-1 teaspoon dried garlic
  • any herbs (optional)
  • salt
  • ground pepper
  • fat for frying
Method · 30 min
  1. Finely chop the ham. Coarsely grate the kohlrabi. Add the cream, eggs and all the remaining ingredients. Knead the dough, which should not be liquid.
  2. Add the flour gradually, until the consistency of a slightly thicker potato pancake batter.
  3. Place spoonfuls of the mixture into the hot fat and shape into patties. Fry on both sides until golden brown.
  4. Place the finished pancakes on a paper towel to absorb excess fat. They are good both hot and cold.
