Steps:
- Heat oven to 350 degrees. Place butter, granulated sugar and brown sugar in a large roasting pan; whisk until incorporated. Add parsnips; toss. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, and garlic powder; toss. Cover with foil; bake 20 minutes.
- Remove foil; stir. Roast parsnips, uncovered, until lightly browned, about 20 minutes. Stir; adjust seasoning. Sprinkle with chives and serve.
Tips:
- Choose the right parsnips: Look for firm, smooth parsnips with no blemishes. Avoid any that are soft or shriveled.
- Peel the parsnips thinly: This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from becoming tough.
- Slice the onions thinly: This will also help them cook evenly and caramelize properly.
- Use a heavy-bottomed skillet: This will help distribute the heat evenly and prevent the parsnips and onions from burning.
- Cook the parsnips and onions over medium heat: This will allow them to caramelize slowly and develop a deep flavor.
- Stir the parsnips and onions occasionally: This will help prevent them from sticking to the pan and burning.
- Add the flour and cook for 1 minute: This will help thicken the sauce and prevent it from becoming runny.
- Add the milk and cream and bring to a simmer: Stir constantly to prevent the sauce from curdling.
- Season the sauce to taste: Add salt, pepper, and nutmeg until the sauce is flavorful.
- Transfer the mixture to a baking dish and top with cheese: Use a cheese that melts well, such as Gruyère or Parmesan.
- Bake the gratin until golden brown and bubbly: This will take about 30 minutes.
