Ingredients:
- 1- pound (455 g) parsnips, (about 4 medium parsnips)
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- Kosher salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
Preparation:
-
Position rack in top of oven. Preheat oven to 450°F (230°C).
-
Cut away and discard the stem end of the parsnips. Peel, then cut lengthwise and crosswise into your desired shapes. We like them long and thin, as shown in the images. I cut them about ¼-inch (6 macross and as long as I could make them.
-
Scatter parsnips on large rimmed baking sheet pan. Drizzle with the oil and use your hands to coat evenly and thoroughly. Season with salt and pepper and toss again.
-
Roast for about 15 minutes, toss them around with tongs, and continue roasting for about 15 minutes more or until cooked through and tender and very crisp on the outside. Serve immediately.

Tips
- Salt and pepper on our fries is simple and delicious, but there are plenty of other ways to season your parsnip fries:
