I tried these last night with some BBQ chicken and they were great! My husband described them as tasting like home fries, with a parsnip finish. This was my first attempt at frying anything!

Ingredients
  • 2 Parsnips
  • Water
  • Peanut Oil
  • Coarse Sea Salt

Directions
  1. Peel and cut parsnips into "fries" or wedges.
  2. Bring salted water to boil in a large pot.
  3. Parboil parsnips for about 5 minutes, or as necessary depending on how big your fries are. You'll want them mostly cooked. Plunge fries into cold water to stop cooking.
  4. Empty pot of water, dry and add 2 inches of peanut oil. Heat over high heat until shimmering.
  5. Dry parsnips and lower into hot oil in batches. Fry until golden brown (about 5 minutes), stirring occationally to keep them from sticking together.
  6. Remove to paper towels and sprinkle with sea salt. Serve hot with ketchup and vinegar.

Looks like you did a very good job for your first time. Lord, you should have seen some of my first time things, our dog would not even eat them! I have never tasted Parsnip Fries but sounds very good.


Love parsnips! My husband would love these too! Costco sells bags of sweet potato fries, but they are such a HUGE bag you have to eat sweet potato everything for the next week! Although that's not so bad, either! X0


Looks delicious!


I love fresh Parsnip fries this way.
You got my 5
