  • 3 tbsp vegetable oil

Method

  1. Heat the oven to 220°C (200°C fan)/gas 7 and put the oil in a roasting tin to heat.

  2. Cut the parsnips into halves or quarters lengthways, removing any woody core from thicker pieces.

  3. Simmer in salted water for 5 minutes, then drain well and let them steam dry.

  4. Add to the hot oil, turn to coat and season.

  5. Roast for 30 to 35 minutes, turning once, until golden and caramelised.
