Recipe for The Migraine Relief Diet. Celeriac and Sweet Potato Pancakes

Celeriac and Sweet Potato Pancakes

If you are a fan of lacy golden latkes or hash browns, this recipe might become a new favorite dish. The trick to a perfect shredded vegetable pancake is to leave it alone while it fries in the oil so that a crispy crust forms on the bottom and the center cooks through while remaining tender. Do not lift the pancakes until you see the edges turn golden and set.



Recipe:

  • 1 celeriac root, peeled and shredded (about 6 cups)
  • 2 small sweet potatoes, peeled and shredded (about 4 cups)
  • ¼ cup chopped shallots
  • 2 tablespoons arrowroot powder
  • 1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme
  • ½ teaspoon sea salt
  • ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • Nonstick olive oil cooking spray
  • Sautéed apples or applesauce, for serving


1. Squeeze out as much liquid as possible from the celeriac and sweet potatoes, and put the         vegetables in a large bowl.

2. Stir the shallots, arrowroot, thyme, salt, and pepper into the shredded vegetables until well combined.

3. Place a large skillet over medium heat, and spray it generously with cooking spray.

4. Add 1 cup of the shredded vegetable mixture per pancake to the skillet, and press the mixture down with a spatula. Three pancakes should fit at one time.

5. Cook the pancakes until the bottoms are golden and crispy, about 5 minutes.

6. Using a spatula, flip the pancakes over, and cook the other side until golden and crispy, about 5 minutes.

7. Transfer the finished pancakes to a paper towel–lined plate.

8. Repeat with the remaining shredded vegetable mixture.

9. Serve 2 pancakes per person, topping with sautéed apples or applesauce.
