Ingredients

• 1  lb parsnip
• 2  tablespoons butter
• 1⁄4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

Directions

1. Scrape or peel the parsnips, then cut them into sticks about the size of your little finger. Dry them well with a paper towel.
2. In a heavy 10-inch skillet, melt the butter; add the parsnips shaking to coat. Sprinkle with nutmeg, cover tightly, and sauté on medium heat for about 5 to 10 minutes. The parsnips should be tender and gooey and slightly caramelized. Add salt and pepper to taste.
