Ingredients

• 500 grams parsnips
• 250 grams pineapple (fresh or canned in juice, not syrup)
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 tablespoon honey
• 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoon ground ginger
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Peel the parsnips and cut them into evenly sized sticks, about 1 cm (half an inch) thick. If the cores are tough or woody, remove them.

Step 3

If using fresh pineapple, peel, core, and cut into bite-sized chunks. Drain well if using canned pineapple.

Step 4

In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, honey, ground cinnamon, ground ginger, salt, and black pepper. Whisk until blended.

Step 5

Toss the parsnip sticks in the honey-spice mixture until evenly coated.

Step 6

Spread the parsnips on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer. Roast in the preheated oven for 15 minutes.

Step 7

After 15 minutes, remove the baking sheet from the oven and add the pineapple chunks. Toss or stir gently, ensuring all ingredients are spread out again in a single layer.

Step 8

Return the baking sheet to the oven and roast for an additional 10 minutes, or until the parsnips are golden and tender, and the pineapple is lightly caramelized.

Step 9

Remove from the oven and transfer to a serving platter. If desired, garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color and flavor.

Step 10

Serve warm as a side dish or unique addition to a holiday spread.
