Ingredients

  • One 8-pound corned beef brisket, raw
  • 3 cups sauerkraut
  • 3 pounds cream cheese
  • 2 pounds Swiss cheese, shredded or diced small
  • Vegetable oil, for deep-frying
  • Flour, for coating
  • Buttermilk, for dredging
  • Panko breadcrumbs, for coating
  • Chopped fresh parsley, for coating
  • Whole-Grain Honey Mustard Horseradish Dipping Sauce, recipe follows
  • Special equipment: a deep-frying thermometer

Directions

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.

Place the brisket in a large pan with the pickling seasoning and enough water to fill the pan halfway. Cover and cook for 3 hours. Let cool partially, and then refrigerate to cool completely (for at least 3 hours total if you cut the brisket into pieces, or overnight if cooling it whole).

Dice the brisket and puree in a food processor until a paste forms (some chunks are fine). Add the sauerkraut, cream cheese and Swiss cheese and mix well. Shape the mixture into little spheres the size of golf balls; set aside.

In a large heavy-bottomed saucepan, pour enough vegetable oil to fill the pan about a third of the way. Heat over medium heat until a deep-frying thermometer inserted in the oil reaches 350 degrees F.

In three separate containers put the flour, buttermilk and panko breadcrumbs mixed with fresh parsley. Take a sphere and coat in the flour, dredge in the buttermilk and then coat in the breadcrumbs. Repeat with the remaining spheres. Fry in batches--making sure all the fritters are submerged--until golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes.

Serve the fritters with the Whole-Grain Honey Mustard Horseradish Dipping Sauce on the side.

Whole-Grain Honey Mustard Horseradish Dipping Sauce:

  • 4 cups mayonnaise
  • 1 pound honey
  • 8 ounces Dijon mustard
  • 6 ounces horseradish (fresh if possible)
  • 4 ounces whole-grain mustard with stout
  • 4 ounces rice vinegar
  • 1 1/2 ounces dry mustard
  • 1 tablespoon granulated garlic

Mix together the mayonnaise, honey, Dijon mustard, horseradish, whole-grain mustard, rice vinegar, dry mustard and granulated garlic in a large bowl.

    Having seen this dish highlighted on Guy Fieri's DDD, I was dying to try it. It looked SOOO good. I didn't have a fryer, or a proper thermometer and I probably didn't use the right oil and I'd never cooked a corned beef in my life, but these fritters came out absolutely great. My husband doesn't often brag on my cooking but he has told most of our friends about this wonderful dish and has requested them for several occasions since then. And now I have a controlled temp fryer and good oil and I look like a pro. By the way, try cooking the corned beef in apple cider instead of water. It's GREAT.

    Made these yesterday but of course I had to adjust for a smaller batch. These are so good and really not hard to make at all. I'm not a big mustard fan but Sweet Baby Ray makes a dipping sauce calles Ray's signature sauce which taste real good with these. It looks like a thousand island dressing but this has horseradish in it and taste great. I have some mixture left and thinking about doing a few with caraway seed in them so it will have the rye bread taste. Sould have used the sauekraut with the caraway in it. Must try if you like reuben sandwiches. Also I'm sure thousand island for dipping would be great also. Trying that today.
