Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1 kg parsnips approximately 15cm in length, peeled
  • 4 tsp plain flour
  • 4 tsp olive oil or rapeseed oil
  • 4 tsp maple syrup
  • 2 rosemary sprigs leaves only, chopped
  • Flaky sea salt

Instructions

  • Prepare the Parsnips: Halve the peeled parsnips lengthwise, then cut each half into 3 equal pieces.
  • Place the parsnip pieces in a large pot of boiling water and boil for 5 minutes.
  • Drain well and toss with the flour to coat.
  • Preheat the Roasting Tin: Preheat the oven to 220°C (200°C fan) or gas mark 7.
  • Add the oil to a large roasting tin and heat in the oven for 5 minutes.
  • Roast the Parsnips: Add the parsnips to the hot roasting tin, turning them in the oil to coat.
  • Give the tin a shake so the parsnips make contact with the base.
  • Roast for 30 minutes, turning once halfway through, until golden and crispy.
  • Finish and Serve: Transfer the roasted parsnips to a serving platter, drizzle with the maple syrup, and scatter with chopped rosemary and flaky sea salt.
