Fried Parsnips Recipe by Judi Woodman McComiskey
Fried Parsnips Ingredients
1 (16 ounce) bag parsnips
Cooking water
3 to 4 tablespoons olive oil
1 to 2 tablespoons butter
How to Make Fried Parsnips
Peel parsnips, slice thinly lengthwise, and quickly blanch in a small amount of water, almost just to steam them. Drain in a colander. Lay parsnips on a cookie sheet and set aside. Melt butter in a large frying pan and add olive oil, enough to cover the bottom of the pan about a ¼ of an inch. Over medium heat, fry parsnips until lightly browned, adding more butter/oil as needed. Serves 4.
Recipe Notes: Some like them on the crispy side. Typically, a bag will feed four people, but be forewarned that they may be gobbled up before dinner is on the table!
