There are always loads of recipes I'd like to try but lose them before I do. This is where I can record recipes I find interesting and keep notes on my experiments with them.

I have a system that I've adopted for working through recipes:

1 - New recipes are saved to the Experimental Mouffette and is labeled : Untested
2 - As I'm working out the changes I'd like to make (if any) it is labeled : Testing
3 - Once I think I've got the correct formula it is labeled : Test 1
4 - IF I am able to reproduce the effect a second time it is labeled : Test 2 - if I am not able to reproduce the effect, it remains Test 1
5 - The same process as step 4 is used to graduate it to Test 3
6 - Once I have been able to reproduce the effect successfully 3 times, it graduates to my main blog, La Mouffette Gourmande

Rutabaga Bacon Fritters - Untested

https://www.dietdoctor.com/recipes/keto-rutabaga-fritters-bacon

0 - Ok, savory fritters. No problem. But I wonder about the mayonnaise. I think it's a Paleo diet affectation which I have no attachment to. Maybe I'll look up the basics for an aioli? Or just home-made mayo? Anyway, something to look into.

1 lb rutabaga
6 oz. halloumi  Parmesan or feta cheese
4 eggs
3 tbsp coconut flour (almond?)
1 pinch turmeric
½ tsp small onion powder or 2 Tbsps finely chopped chives
1 tsp salt
¼ tsp pepper
3 oz. butter, for frying
For serving
6 oz. bacon
1 cup mayonnaise
5 oz. leafy greens

  1. Coarsely grate the peeled rutabaga and the cheese. 
  2. Mix together all the ingredients for the fritters and let sit for a few minutes.
  3. Melt the butter in a frying pan. Form 12 patties with your hands and fry over medium heat. Turn after about 2 minutes, and flip again until each side is an attractive golden colour.
  4. Keep the cooked fritters in a warm oven until ready to serve.
  5. Serve with a green salad and a dollop of mayonnaise, perhaps flavored with herbs or paprika powder. And don't forget the bacon...
