CRISPY & HEALTHY RECIPE: ROSEMARY-GARLIC PARSNIP FRIES FOR WELLNESS

Did you know that parsnips and rosemary are herbs in the same family? Rosemary is often used to season meat, potatoes, and fish. Parsnips have a sweet flavor that goes well with other root vegetables like carrots, beets, and turnips.

The best part about these veggies is that they come with tons of benefits. But, you don’t have to think about just ‘salads’ when you think of ‘health.’

Here, we bring to you, a delicious and crispy recipe for rosemary-garlic parsnip fries with all their goodness intact!

Recipe

These are the ingredients you’ll require to make these delicious fries (*This will serve four people) 

• 4 large parsnips
• 4 sprigs of rosemary
• 6 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon salt + 2 tablespoons for blanching
• Avocado Oil for frying

Once you have these handy, simply follow these cooking instructions; 

1. Bring a large pot full of water to a boil with 2 sprigs of rosemary and 2 tablespoons salt.
2. Slice the parsnips to be 3 inches in length and ¼ inch in width. Transfer the parsnips into the pot to boil for 5 minutes.
3. Strain parsnips and let sit for 5 minutes until no longer dripping with water.
4. Pour a little oil into a medium-sized saucepan over low heat.
5. Add minced garlic and remaining rosemary and saute for about 2 minutes. Don’t let it brown. Strain and set garlic and rosemary aside.
6. Pour enough oil into the pan to fry the parsnips. About ¼ an inch of oil in depth. Heat on medium.
7. Fry parsnips for about 3-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Transfer to a paper towel to drain excess oil.
8. In a large mixing bowl, toss fries with garlic, rosemary, and desired amount of salt.
