 Roasted parsnips are one of the easiest air fryer recipes you can do. With just a couple of ingredients, you can create delicious roast parsnips in your air fryer in little over 20 minutes.
 I absolutely love roast parsnips - I've loved them ever since I was a kid. The parsnips, along with the roast potatoes, were the first thing to disappear off my plate when we had family Sunday roast. For me, they're a taste of home and as a result, I cook them all the time.
 If you've roasted parsnips, you'll know that to get them perfectly crispy on the outside and soft in the middle, they take quite a while in the oven.
 I'm really not a fan of throwing raw parsnips straight into the oven or the air fryer, they need to be softened slightly first.
 I always par-boil for 3 minutes, but I also sometimes blanche them for 5 minutes, meaning I throw the cut parsnips into a pan, pour on boiling water from the kettle and then pop the lid on without any heat under them, allowing them to slowly soften in the hot water.
 You really can't go wrong following my method. They are delicious every time! Of course, if you like them more well done, you can give them an extra minute or two, but be careful - parsnips are full of starch and once they start to darken, they'll colour really quickly. Just one or two minutes can make all the difference.
 (Mmmmm...crunchy parmesan style...)
 No reason not to add thyme and honey if you prefer.
 

 Thank you very much! I think we cracked the parsnip-mystery! =)

 They're regulars in any stew down this way, but baked like in a roasting pan, the caramelization does wonders.
 I suspect that dill could be substituted for a nice twist.
 The humble turnip, now that one...I dunno...

 What about the mysteries of the rutabaga? Did you ever delve into those?
