Air Fryer Parsnips
Description
This recipe calls for slicing parsnips into evenly sized batten pieces to ensure uniform cooking. The parsnips are tossed in olive oil, honey, Dijon mustard, sea salt, and black pepper, which provides a sweet and tangy coating that flavors the vegetables during cooking.
Cooked at 200°C (400°F) in the air fryer for 13 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through helps achieve even browning and crispness. The air frying method crisps the outside while maintaining a tender interior, a texture contrast that enhances the eating experience.
Preparation tips include choosing parsnips of similar size and cutting them so they cook evenly. While peeling is optional, it affects texture and appearance, with peeled parsnips offering a smoother bite. The simple seasoning allows the natural sweetness of the parsnips to come through while adding a glazed surface.
Ingredients
- 450 g parsnip sliced into battens
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 pinch sea salt
- 1 pinch black pepper
Instructions
- Put the parsnips into a bowl. Add the oil, honey, mustard, salt and pepper. Mix well so that all the parsnips are coated.
- Put the coated parsnips into the air fryer.
- Cook at 200°C/400°F for 13 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through.
Notes
- Cut parsnips uniformly so they cook evenly; adjust cutting method based on size to yield pieces about the same thickness.
- Ensure all parsnips are thoroughly coated with the honey-mustard mixture for consistent flavor and caramelization.
- Peeling the parsnips is optional but affects texture; peeled parsnips yield a smoother finish.
