Parsnip Fries Recipe

Add Step-by-Step Photos	Hollymayb / All my dishes 1 year, 6 months ago 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! Prep:10m Cook:10m Servings:2	Hollymayb

Ingredients

2 Parsnips

Water

Peanut Oil

Coarse Sea Salt

Directions

Peel and cut parsnips into "fries" or wedges.

Bring salted water to boil in a large pot.

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.

Empty pot of water, dry and add 2 inches of peanut oil. Heat over high heat until shimmering.

Dry parsnips and lower into hot oil in batches. Fry until golden brown (about 5 minutes), stirring occationally to keep them from sticking together.

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

I wonder if these could be baked? I'm always scared of deep frying. (even in shallow oil) LOL.

Being a fan of veggie fries of all sorts (zucchini, carrot, etc.), these sound like I'd love them! :) I'll try baking them and let you know how it turns out.

Thanks for the recipe!
