Crispy roasted potatoes with parsnips

A traditional accompaniment to the Christmas lunch or any Sunday roast.

What you need

1 1/2 kg potatoes, peeled and cut into large, even chunks
1 1/2 kg parsnips, peeled, quartered (centre root removed if tough and cut into small pieces)
1 tsp salt
3 tsp oil or use the fat from cooking bacon or the Sunday roast

Method

  1. Preheat oven to 190°C.

  2. Put potatoes in a saucepan. Cover with salted water. Bring to the boil and cook for 6-7 min. Drain well.

  3. Put potatoes in a roasting tin or add to meat roasting in the oven. Turn the potatoes in the oil or fat. Roast for 1 hour, turning regularly.

  4. Blanch the parsnips in boiling salted water for 5 min. Drain well.

  5. Add the parnsips to the pan of potatoes. Baste well. Continue to roast for 1 hour, turning occasionally so they colour and cook evenly.

  6. Remove parsnips and potatoes from pan. Serve.
