Pan frying sunchokes is the quickest and easiest way to prepare sunchokes. Paired with a lemon and herb tahini sauce to brighten up your plate. The only sunchoke recipe you need!
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil on medium-high heat. Add the sunchokes and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Sauté for 5 minutes, flip and saute until tender and brown on both sides, about an additional 5 minutes.
While the sunchokes are frying combine all the ingredients in a blender or food processor. Blend until the sauce is very smooth. Add more water if necessary to thin out the sauce.
Spread the tahini sauce on the plate and top with the sunchokes. Garnish with additional chopped fresh herbs if desired.
Notes
For softer sunchokes soak in water and heat in the microwave for 3 to 4 minutes before sauteing.
Leftover sunchokes and sauce will keep in airtight containers for up to 5 days. Store separately.
