Peel and grate the parsnip. Make sure you have 180g after grating. Grate the cheese and finely slice onion, tarragon and parsley.

Mix together parsnip, parsley, onion, egg, cheese, flour and 1 tbsp olive oil in a bowl. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Pan fry a little test in order to check if you are happy with the seasoning.
3
Shape flat, round patties with your hands and pan fry them on medium heat in olive oil on both sides until they are crispy and golden. I like to add a knob of butter and a crushed garlic clove (just crush it under the side of a knife) to the pan towards the end of the cooking time. Sprinkle with a little salt.
4
Stir together harissa and crème fraîche. Adjust the amount of harissa to your liking. Add salt, pepper and lemon juice to taste.
5
Arrange the patties on a plate and serve with the dip, chopped parsley and a pinch of chili flakes. A fresh salad is delicious on the side.
