Roasted Parsnips With Parsley Food

ROASTED PARSNIPS AND CARROTS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• If the parsnips and carrots are very thick, cut them in half lengthwise. Slice each diagonally in 1-inch-thick slices. The vegetables will shrink while cooking, so don't make the pieces too small. Place the cut vegetables on a sheet pan. Add the olive oil, salt, and pepper and toss well. Roast for 20 to 40 minutes, depending on the size of the vegetables, tossing occasionally, until the parsnips and carrots are just tender. Sprinkle with dill and serve hot.

ROASTED PARSNIPS

Steps:

• Pre-heat oven to 400°F
• Roast the parsnips: Roast, stirring once or twice, until the parsnips are tender and the stock has evaporated or been absorbed, 20-45 minutes (depending on how tender the parsnips are to begin with). Check often to avoid their getting mushy, especially if they are to be reheated later.
• Make horseradish-herb butter: Combine the softened butter with the horseradish, parsley, chives and garlic and season with salt and pepper.
• Serve: Toss the warm roasted parsnips with the horseradish-herb butter to serve.

OVEN-ROASTED PARSNIP AND SUNCHOKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a medium mixing bowl, combine the sunchokes, parsnips, onions, garlic, rosemary, canola oil, salt and pepper and toss until thoroughly combined.
• Transfer to a sheet pan and roast until the vegetables are browned and tender, 20 to 25 minutes.

GOLDEN MASHED POTATOES WITH PARSNIPS AND PARSLEY

Steps:

• Combine potatoes, parsnips, parsley root, if using, and garlic in heavy large saucepan. Add 3 cups water and broth; if necessary, add additional water to cover by 1 inch. Boil uncovered until vegetables are tender, about 25 minutes. Drain vegetables, reserving liquid.
• Return vegetables to pot. Add cream and butter. Set over low heat; mash until mixture is smooth; and fluffy, adding enough reserved cooking liquid to thin to desired consistency. Mix in 2 tablespoons parsley. (Can be made 2 hours ahead. Cover; let stand at room temperature. Rewarm over low heat, stirring.) Transfer to bowl. Top with additional parsley.

HONEY-ROASTED PARSNIPS

Steps:

• Top and tail 500g parsnips, cutting any larger ones in half lengthways, then put in a large saucepan, cover with salted water, bring to the boil and cook for 5 mins.
• Drain in a colander and let them steam-dry for a few mins.
• Heat oven to 190C/170C fan/ gas 5.
• Sprinkle 1 tbsp flour and 1 tbsp honey over the parsnips and toss to coat.
• Put the parsnips in a roasting tin with 2 tbsp sunflower oil, 2 tbsp butter and seasoning.
• Roast for 40 mins, turning halfway, until golden.
