Parsnips are a vegetable that are far too often ignored. When roasted, they’re always crisp, sweet and tender, and I find these parsnips eat particularly well with roast lamb.

Ingredients

  • 900 g (2 lb) parsnips, peeled and quartered
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

Method

Pre-heat the oven to 220°C/425°F/gas 7.

If the parsnips have slightly woody centres, cut these out before cooking.

Pre-heat a roasting tray on top of the stove and add the olive oil and butter. Fry the parsnips in the oil until golden brown on all sides then
