Roast Parsnips

Directions

1. 1
   1. Pre-heat your oven to 200°C, 180°C fan oven, Gas Mark 6; put your roasting tin in the oven, so that it pre-heats as well.
2. 2
   Make your clarified butter: melt the butter in a saucepan and allow to cool. Once the water has evaporated, skim off any solids that float to the surface. Pour the clarified butter into a large bowl, being careful not to include any of the milk solids. This butter can be used to cook at higher temperatures without burning.
3. 3
   Peel and cut the parsnips into quarters lengthways. The bigger the parsnip the more flavour there is. Remember, they do shrink down considerably!
4. 4
   Add the butter to the Knorr Vegetable Stock Cubes to help them dissolve. The stock adds more flavour than salt.
5. 5
   Take the pre-heated roasting tin from the oven, and add in the dissolved stock and butter. Add the parsnips and mix with the seasoning until they are nicely coated.
6. 6
   Put into oven and cook for 20-30 minutes (less if you have smaller parsnips) until crisp and golden. Easy.
