Ingredients
- 800 grams parsnips
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 220°C (430°F).
Step 2
Peel the parsnips and cut them into even, medium-sized sticks, similar to thick-cut French fries.
Step 3
Place the parsnip sticks into a large mixing bowl. Drizzle the olive oil over them.
Step 4
Sprinkle the salt, black pepper, and garlic powder onto the parsnips. Add the fresh thyme leaves.
Step 5
Using your hands, toss the parsnips thoroughly in the bowl, ensuring each piece is well coated with the oil and seasonings.
Step 6
Spread the seasoned parsnips in a single layer on a large baking sheet. Make sure they are not overcrowded to ensure even roasting.
Step 7
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 30-35 minutes, turning once halfway through the cooking time, until the parsnips are golden brown and tender.
Step 8
Remove from the oven and transfer to a serving dish. Serve hot as a delightful sugar-free side dish.
