What the f uck are you having for Dinner thread..

Boil them. Cool them. Then make a mix of flour, brown sugar, mustard powder; salt and garlic powder. Then douse them in oil then shake the flour mix on them.

 

And after that, chuck the ****ers in the bin.

Parsnips are fookin horrible sweet, mushy ****.

 

What the actual ****?

That’s an absolute ****ing outrage.

 

Chill mate, have another cube of ice.

 

Doesn't everyone have their fish, chips, gravy, tomato sauce and tartare sauce this way???

 

Oh mate...

I can’t even start on it.

 

They’re only mushy if you boil them first. Madness.

 

I can, bin.

 

Not true, i tried it, they are not mushy, so that theory is null and void.

 

They are.

Unless you don't actually cook them, once they are cooked, they're a horrible soft consistency/texture.

It's not even that though, it's the sickly sweetness. They are just not nice.

 

You tried what?

 

Never.
Boil.
Them.

Ever.

 

Read the thread, i boiled them for nearly 5 minutes first.

Then roasted in oil and butter, with sea salt and chilli flakes, and they ain't mushy.

 

why?

 

Is this one very large parsnip we're taking about?

Can't imagine there being much left of a normal size peeled/boiled/roasted one.

 

It's cut into chip sized pieces.

 

I feel like Stan is genuinely offended by this boiling parsnips thing.

 

I feel his pain.


Roasted, they're more.accaptable.

 

I can't say I've ever thought to boil them tbf.

 

I just don't like them. Similar in most ways to a carrot, bar colour and taste.

Carrots are orange and are delicious whichever way you cook them.

Parsnips are neither.
