Steps:
- Keeping cabbage whole, cut out and discard core and any discolored outer leaves. Beginning at top of head and working with 1 leaf at a time, remove 6 outer leaves, rolling each one back on itself until it can be loosened intact from head, and reserve. Cut remaining cabbage head into 8 wedges and cut each wedge crosswise into 3 pieces. Separate layers of cabbage pieces. Peel parsnips and diagonally cut into 1/8-inch-thick slices. Chop onion. Peel potatoes and cut crosswise into 1/8-inch-thick slices.
- Bring a large kettle of salted water to a boil and cook reserved cabbage leaves until just tender, 3 to 5 minutes. With a slotted spoon transfer cabbage leaves to a kitchen towel to drain. Add cabbage pieces to boiling water and cook until crisp-tender, about 3 minutes. With slotted spoon transfer pieces to a colander to drain and transfer to a bowl. Add potatoes to boiling water and cook until just tender, about 4 minutes. With slotted spoon transfer potatoes to colander to drain and transfer to another bowl. Add parsnips to boiling water and cook until just tender, about 3 minutes. Drain parsnips in colander.
- In a 12-inch heavy skillet cook onion in 3 tablespoons butter over moderately low heat, stirring, until softened. Add cabbage pieces, salt, nutmeg, and pepper to taste and cook mixture over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until cabbage is tender, about 10 minutes. If any liquid remains in skillet, cook mixture over high heat until liquid is evaporated, about 1 minute.
- If using Robiola, cut into pieces. Stir Robiola or mascarpone into cabbage mixture and cook over moderate heat, stirring, until cheese is melted.
- Preheat oven to 375°F.
- Butter a 2-quart ovenproof round serving dish (about 8 1/2 to 9 inches across and 2 1/2 inches deep) and line with cabbage leaves, letting leaves overhang 1 to 2 inches. Arrange half of potatoes in serving dish and season with salt and pepper. Top potatoes in dish with half of cabbage mixture and arrange half of parsnips over cabbage. Repeat layering with remaining potatoes, cabbage mixture, and parsnips, arranging last layer of parsnips decoratively around edge of casserole and leaving cabbage exposed in center. Dot parsnips with remaining 1/2 tablespoon butter. Fold cabbage leaves over parsnips and cover tightly with a double layer of foil. Casserole may be prepared up to this point 1 day ahead and chilled. Bring casserole to room temperature before proceeding. Bake casserole until heated through and bubbling, about 1 hour.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
- Cut the sweet potatoes and then the parsnips into paper-thin slices using a food processor fitted with the thinnest vegetable-slicing blade. If necessary, cut the potatoes in half or quarters lengthwise so they fit into the feeder tube.
- Use 1 tablespoon of the butter to coat the inside of a 2-quart oven-proof casserole (a 6 by 10-inch
- Pyrex pan works well). Combine the cream, stock, nutmeg, cinnamon, salt and pepper. Place
- 1/3 of the sweet potatoes in a thin layer across the bottom of the casserole. Layer half the parsnips on top of the sweet potatoes. Repeat this sequence until all of the sweet potatoes and parsnips have been used. Pour the cream mixture over the top. It should reach about 3/4 of the way up the vegetables. Butter a piece of aluminum foil with the remaining butter and wrap the foil tightly over the casserole. Put in the oven and turn tempertature down to 325 degrees.
- Bake the casserole 1 hour. Remove the foil and continue to cook another 15 minutes, until the vegetables are tender when pierced with a knife and the top is browned. Allow to cool slightly before serving. Serve warm.
CHICKEN, PARSNIP AND MUSHROOM CASSEROLE
This one pot wonder is quite delicious and though I've not tried it any other way I'd say it would make for good pie filling if you used thigh fillets instead of chicken cutlets.

Number Of Ingredients 17
Steps:
- Add olive oil to a large pot and saute onion and garlic until soft. Add the carrots and parsnips to the pan along with the stock and bring to a boil. Add the lentils, herbs and spices. Simmer covered for 20 minutes or until the vegetables are tender and the lentils are cooked. Preheat oven to 300F. Spray a casserole dish with cooking spray if needed. Mix kidney beans into the large pot with the carrot mixture. Using a slotted spoon transfer vegetables into the casserole dish, then ladle in enough liquid to cover the vegetables. Bake for 30-40 min. until a slight skin forms and the casserole is bubbling. Meanwhile, peel and chop potatoes and cook in boiling water until tender. Mash with the milk and butter and season with salt and pepper. Remove the casserole from the oven and carefully put spoonfuls of mashed potato onto the vegetables. Increase oven to 350F and return casserole to oven and bake for an additional 20-30 min. until potatoes begin to crisp. Add grated parmesan and broil until slightly browned. Cool slightly and serve with warm crusty bread.
Tips:
- Choose the right parsnips: Look for parsnips that are firm, smooth, and free of blemishes. Smaller parsnips tend to be more tender.
- Peel the parsnips thinly: Use a sharp vegetable peeler to remove the outer layer of the parsnips. This will help the parsnips cook evenly.
- Cut the parsnips evenly: Cut the parsnips into uniform-sized pieces so that they cook evenly. Slicing them about 1/2-inch thick is a good rule of thumb.
- Don't overcook the parsnips: Parsnips should be cooked until they are tender but still have a slight bite to them. Overcooked parsnips will become mushy and lose their flavor.
- Season the parsnips generously: Parsnips have a mild flavor, so don't be afraid to season them generously. Salt, pepper, garlic, and thyme are all good choices.
- Use a good quality cheese: The type of cheese you use will greatly affect the flavor of the casserole. Use a cheese that melts well and has a strong flavor, such as cheddar, Parmesan, or Gruyère.
- Don't skimp on the butter: Butter adds richness and flavor to the casserole. Don't be afraid to use a generous amount.
- Bake the casserole until it's golden brown: The casserole is done baking when the top is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Conclusion:
Parsnip casserole is a delicious and comforting dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own personal preferences. With its sweet and savory flavor, this casserole is sure to be a hit with everyone at the table.
