Honey Roast Parsnips

Posted on | November 11, 2008 |

Parsnips are in season and go great with any kind of roast meat.  Parsnips are naturally sweet and by roasting them with a little honey, the sweet flavour will become richer and more developed.

Ingredients
1 large parsnip, peeled, cored, and cut into wedges.
35g butter
1 tbsp clear honey
1 tbsp brown sugar

1. Heat the oven to 200c or gas mark 6.
2. Heat the butter in an ovenproof frying pan and add the parsnip wedges. Fry until they begin to colour. Drizzle over the honey and sprinkle over the sugar.
4. Stir to combine and then place the pan into the oven. Roast for 15-20 minutes, or until the parsnips are golden-brown and tender.

    You have missed out one important ingredient namely sherry. Roast the honeyed parsnips in a glass full of sherry and the flavour is really enhanced.
