Ingredients

  • 1 pound parsnips, peeled, cut in half crosswise, and cut into narrow strips lengthwise

  • 1 tablespoon butter

  • 1 pinch salt

  • ground black pepper to taste

Directions

  1. Place the parsnips into a saucepan, and cover with water. Bring to a boil, turn down the heat, and simmer until parsnips are tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Drain well, pat the parsnip pieces dry with paper towels, and set aside.

  2. Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat, and place the parsnips into the hot butter in an even layer. Sprinkle with salt and black pepper (I use quite a bit). Cook parsnips until lightly golden brown on both sides, 5 to 8 minutes per side.
