Braised Parsnips With Maple Syrup And Pecans Food

STICKY MAPLE-GLAZED PARSNIPS WITH PECANS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. On a large baking tray, toss the parsnips with the oil and plenty of seasoning. Cook on a low shelf in the oven for 30 mins.
• Remove from oven, drizzle with maple syrup, scatter over the pecans and toss everything together. Cook for a further 5-10 mins until the parsnips start to caramelise and crisp up at the ends.

MAPLE-ROAST PARSNIPS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Peel the parsnips and then halve them crosswise, then halve or quarter each piece lengthwise.
• Place the parsnips into a roasting tin. Pour the oil over the parsnips and mix them well so that the oil covers all of the pieces.
• Pour the maple syrup over the parsnips and transfer the roasting tin to the oven. Roast the parsnips for 35 minutes, or until they are tender and golden brown.
• To serve place on a clean serving dish.

GLAZED TURNIPS AND PARSNIPS WITH MAPLE SYRUP

Steps:

• In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high. Add parsnips and turnips; cook, stirring once, until beginning to brown, 2 minutes.
• Add broth, pure maple syrup, and vinegar; season with salt and pepper. Bring to a boil; reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook until crisp-tender, 10 minutes. Uncover, and cook over medium-high until parsnips and turnips are tender and liquid is syrupy, 7 to 9 minutes more (there should be only a small amount of liquid remaining).
• Remove skillet from heat; add butter, and swirl skillet until melted. Season with salt and pepper.

SALTED MAPLE-ROASTED PARSNIPS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Put the parsnips in a large roasting tin with the oil, maple syrup, thyme leaves and some sea salt flakes. Roast for 35-40 mins until soft and sticky. Scatter over a few more sea salt flakes before serving.

ROAST PARSNIPS WITH MAPLE SYRUP & ROSEMARY

Steps:

• Halve the parsnips down their length (as they are not too big, the cores shouldn't be woody so there is no need to remove them), then cut each half into 3 equal pieces. To do this, cut off the bottom and halve the top down the length. Boil for 5 mins, then drain well and toss with the flour.
• Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Put the oil in a large roasting tin and heat in the oven for 5 mins. Add the parsnips, turn them in the oil and give the tin a shake so that all the parsnips are in contact with the base of the tin. Roast for 30 mins, turning once, until golden. Tip onto a platter, drizzle with the maple syrup and scatter with rosemary and salt.

CREAMY BRAISED PARSNIPS WITH SAGE

Steps:

• In a large straight-sided skillet, heat oil over medium-high. Add parsnips and saute until lightly browned, 4 minutes. Add broth and sage and bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and cook until tender, 8 minutes. Uncover, increase heat to high, and cook until liquid is reduced by half. Stir in cream and season with salt and pepper.
