It's hard to resist seconds when I make up a batch of these delicious veggies. The trick is to slice them very very thin...like potato chips. I find it is best to use a mandoline to make the job quick and easy. I'm not a big carrot fan, and I find that slicing thicker pieces makes the parsnips taste a bit "carroty." This is not a low-cal recipe, but it is loaded with vitamins and has a flavor that will make you crave parsnips from now on!

Ingredients

4 serv.
  • parsnips, thinly sliced (very thin)2 -4
  • olive oil1⁄4 cup
  • ground ginger1⁄8 teaspoon
  • ground nutmeg1⁄8 teaspoon
  • sage1⁄8 teaspoon
  • minced garlic (fresh or jar)1 teaspoon
  • salt1⁄2 teaspoon
  • sugar1⁄2 tablespoon
  • butter2 tablespoons

Step-by-step instructions

  1. 1

    Slice parsnips as thin as possible. Use a mandoline if you have one, on the thinnest setting.

  2. 2

    Heat olive oil in a large skillet. Add parsnips, garlic, spices, and salt. Saute on medium to low heat until parsnips become tender and transparent. The parsnips have a tendency to absorb the oil, so be prepared to add a little more if the parsnips begin to stick to the bottom. Do not cook too fast. You want them to get thoroughly cooked without getting burned.

  3. 3

    When the parsnips begin to look done, add the butter and sugar. Continue to saute until slightly browned.
