ROAST PARSNIPS WITH HONEY



Roast Parsnips With Honey image

Recipe from Great British Cookbook and is posted for ZWT-8-Great Britain. The honey enhances the natural sweetness of the parsnips per the recipe.

Provided by DailyInspiration

Categories     Vegetable

Time 40m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 lbs parsnips, peeled and quartered
2 tablespoons oil
2 ounces butter
2 tablespoons clear honey

Steps:

  • Pre-heat oven to 425 degrees F. Cut out any woody centers of the parsnips. Preheat a roasting sheet on top of the stove and add the oil and butter. Fry the parsnips until golden brown on all sides. Roast them in a pre-heated oven for 20 minutes, turning occasionally.
  • Pour the honey over the parsnips and carefully turn them, making sure they have all been covered. Place them back in the oven for 5 minutes. The parsnips will now be tender and sweet. Stir them in a serving dish and spoon some of the honey glaze from the pan over the top to finish.

Tips:

  • To select the best parsnips, choose those that are firm and smooth, with no blemishes or bruises. Smaller parsnips tend to be more tender and flavorful.
  • Parsnips can be roasted, mashed, fried, or boiled. Roasting brings out their natural sweetness, while mashing them creates a creamy and comforting side dish.
  • Honey is a natural sweetener that pairs well with the earthy flavor of parsnips. It can be used in glazes, marinades, or simply drizzled over roasted parsnips.
  • Parsnips can be roasted with other root vegetables, such as carrots, turnips, and potatoes. To add a pop of color and flavor, try adding some chopped fresh herbs, such as thyme, rosemary, or sage.
  • If you are making mashed parsnips, be sure to drain them well before mashing. This will help to prevent them from becoming watery.
  • Parsnips can also be used to make soups, stews, and casseroles. Their sweet flavor and hearty texture make them a versatile addition to many dishes.

Conclusion:

Honey parsnips are a delicious and versatile side dish that can be enjoyed all year round. They are easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you like them roasted, mashed, or fried, parsnips are a great way to add some sweetness and nutrition to your meals.
