We got lots of sunchokes in our garden this year and I've been trying different dishes. Frying makes them come out sweeter, yet earthy and delicious!

Steps

15 mins

1

Scrub the sunchokes to remove dirt. Don't peel.
2

With a mandolin/slicer, cut into thin slices. You can use a knife too, cutting as thin as possible (they will take longer to fry however).
3

Heat oil in pot until 180C/350F or hot enough to bubble vigorously when you put a slice of sunchokes in the oil.
4

Pat the slices dry with a paper towel before putting in oil.
5

Fry until light to golden brown (2-3 minutes for ultra thin slices, several minutes for thicker slices). Fry in batches as needed.
6

Scoop out and let drain on paper towels. They will crisp up in a couple minutes.
7

Sprinkle with salt and pepper, and/or other spices if you like.
