Roasted Parsnip Medley Recipes

ROASTED PARSNIPS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 180ºC/350ºF/gas 4.
• Scrub the parsnips, then blanch whole in a large pan of boiling salted water for 5 minutes, then drain and steam dry.
• Tip into a large roasting tray, dot over the butter and a pinch of sea salt and black pepper, toss to coat and arrange in a single layer, then roast for 1 hour.
• Remove the tray from the oven, quickly scatter over the bay leaves and drizzle with the vinegar and honey, then toss together and roast for a final 10 minutes, or until beautifully golden.

ROASTED PARSNIPS AND CARROTS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• If the parsnips and carrots are very thick, cut them in half lengthwise. Slice each diagonally in 1-inch-thick slices. The vegetables will shrink while cooking, so don't make the pieces too small. Place the cut vegetables on a sheet pan. Add the olive oil, salt, and pepper and toss well. Roast for 20 to 40 minutes, depending on the size of the vegetables, tossing occasionally, until the parsnips and carrots are just tender. Sprinkle with dill and serve hot.

ROASTED VEGETABLE MEDLEY

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Grease 2 baking sheets with 1 tablespoon olive oil.
• Place the yams, parsnips, and carrots onto the baking sheets. Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, then add the zucchini and asparagus, and drizzle with the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Continue baking until all of the vegetables are tender, about 30 minutes more. Once tender, remove from the oven, and allow to cool for 30 minutes on the baking sheet.
• Toss the roasted peppers together with the garlic, basil, salt, and pepper in a large bowl until combined. Add the roasted vegetables, and toss to mix. Serve at room temperature or cold.

OVEN-ROASTED PARSNIP AND SUNCHOKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a medium mixing bowl, combine the sunchokes, parsnips, onions, garlic, rosemary, canola oil, salt and pepper and toss until thoroughly combined.
• Transfer to a sheet pan and roast until the vegetables are browned and tender, 20 to 25 minutes.

ROASTED ROOT MEDLEY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil.
• Place the beets on a quarter of the baking sheet. Place the carrots, parsnips, sweet potatoes and onions on the other side of the beets (to keep the beets from staining the other vegetables). Drizzle the vegetables with 1 tablespoon oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Gently toss the vegetables to coat and roast until tender, about 35 minutes, turning midway through roasting. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool for 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile make a quick vinaigrette in a small bowl by whisking the remaining olive oil into the orange juice and zest. Add the herbs and season.
• Place the vegetables in serving dish, drizzle with the vinaigrette and gently stir to coat.

PARSNIP-CARROT MEDLEY

Steps:

• In a Dutch oven, bring the parsnips, carrots and broth to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 6-8 minutes or until vegetables are tender. Add the remaining ingredients; heat through.
