Steps:
- Heat oil and butter in a 12-inch heavy skillet over moderate heat until hot but not smoking, then cook turnips, stirring occasionally, until crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Add parsnips and shallots and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown and almost tender, about 10 minutes. Add garlic, rosemary, and salt and pepper to taste and cook, stirring, until vegetables are tender, about 3 minutes more.
Tips:
- Choose fresh, firm parsnips: Look for parsnips that are smooth and free of blemishes. Avoid any that are soft or have dark spots.
- Peel the parsnips thinly: Use a vegetable peeler to remove just the outer layer of the parsnips. This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from becoming too mushy.
- Cut the parsnips into even-sized pieces: This will help them cook evenly. If the pieces are too large, they will take longer to cook and may not cook through evenly.
- Use a combination of herbs: This will give the parsnips a more complex flavor. Fresh herbs like thyme, rosemary, and sage all pair well with parsnips.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the parsnips, make sure to leave enough space between them so that they can cook evenly. If the pan is too crowded, the parsnips will steam instead of roast and will not get crispy.
- Roast the parsnips until they are tender: The parsnips are done roasting when they are tender when pierced with a fork. If they are still too hard, continue roasting them for a few more minutes.
Conclusion:
Roasted parsnips are a delicious and versatile side dish that can be enjoyed with a variety of meals.
