I hate parsnips! I particularly dislike the way they disguise themselves as roast potatoes, chips or even crisps. I have even known them to sneak into mashed potato
My MIL did roast potatoes from raw in a deep fat fryer and roast pork in an oven bag to keep the oven clean - which she didn't - and then wondered why it didn't crackle. All veg cooked to a surrender and all meat very well cooked. She was a gadget woman and had a full Kenwod Chef system and all sorts of other toys. Funnily enough she was good at pastry but not cakes, scones, bread or biscuits.
We love parsnips - roast on their own or with carrots and red onions and a dash of balsamic; souped; baked with sausages, red onions and apples; parsnip and maple syrup cake...........

When my mother discovered parsnips (about 1975 I think) we used to have them roasted with the spuds, having been cut to similar shapes. She thought it would amuse us to guess which was which.

Yummy! Especially with mashed carrots, turnips and butter
Now at last a good use for a parsnip

P. The poor woman. Reminds me of Wendy Craig in Butterflies.
