Description
I'm a huge fan of the parsnip, and roasted, it makes the perfect side dish for your Sunday lunch. Roasting cooks the parsnip slowly and makes it even sweeter!

1
1) Preheat the oven to 200C
2) Scrub your parsnips and cut them into sticks
3) Here's a good way of ensuring your parsnips are totally coated in oil! Put the oil into a large sandwich bag and add the sticks - shake well to coat them all
4) Put the parsnips and the oil into an oven-proof dish
5) Simply roast them for approximately 30 minutes, until they are cooked through with lovely crispy edges
I always par-boil the blighters first like my roast spuds... Means if they get a bit blackened on the tips they are less likely to be a bit raw in the middle.
