- Serves:

4
ingredients
- 2 -4 parsnips, thinly sliced (very thin)
- 1⁄4 cup olive oil
- 1⁄8 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1⁄8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1⁄8 teaspoon sage
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic (fresh or jar)
- 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
- 1⁄2 tablespoon sugar
- 2 tablespoons butter
directions
- Slice parsnips as thin as possible. Use a mandoline if you have one, on the thinnest setting.
- 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.
- When the parsnips begin to look done, add the butter and sugar. Continue to saute until slightly browned.

Boy - these are GOOD! The combination of spices is great on the parsnips and we loved the sweet caramalized flavor they got from being sauteed. I used a bit less oil than called for, and didn't want to add more so when they began to get dry I just added a little water and that worked great. Loved this - thanks for sharing the recipe!

OK taste. Too bad they needed the organic cane sugar I used. I used organic local parsnips, avocado oil in a lesser amount adding a little water as another reviewer as needed, organic ginger powder, the sage but not nutmeg because it is an intoxicant which we don't consume for religious reasons so I subbed allspice in its place, no butter as we are dairy free but I do know it would make the flavour better.
