Method
- To make a slaw, in a large bowl toss together the cabbage, carrot, apple and half of the chives until combined. In a small bowl, whisk together the mustard, vinegar and olive oil. Drizzle over the vegetables, tossing to combine. Cover and chill until needed.
- To make the latke mixture, mix the grated parsnips, potato and onion in a large bowl. Add the herbs, season and mix in the cornflour. Roughly divide the mixture into 4 mounds.
- Heat 1cm of oil in a deep-sided frying pan over medium heat, then shallow fry 2 heaps of the mixture at a time. Cook for 3-5 mins on each side, until dark golden brown all over and crisp. Drain on a plate lined with kitchen roll and keep warm in a low oven if you’d like while you cook the rest of the latkes.
- Once the latkes have been made, fry the eggs until the whites have just set and the yolks are still runny.
- To serve, stir the slaw and divide between 2 plates. Spread the latkes with apple sauce, stack 2 on each plate and top with a fried egg.
