Honey-roasted parsnip and turnip chips

Honey-roasted parsnip and turnip chips are a delicious vegetarian side dish. They go perfectly with a roast dinner, veggie sausages or simply as a nutritious snack. 

My eldest is completely obsessed with honey at the moment. This recipe is the perfect way to sweeten some root vegetables and encourage him to try some vegetables that he'd normally refuse to even allow onto his plate.

Even better, it's a really easy way to use up turnips, should you happen to get some in your veg bag and not know what to do with them.

What to serve with parsnip and turnip chips

These are a brilliant vegetarian side dish.

They go really well with:

• veggie roast dinner
• with a nut roast
• some veggie Yorkshire puddings
• steamed or sautéed greens such as cabbage, kale or broccoli.

Or for an easier dinner try these parsnip and turnip chips with a portion of veggie sausages and some steamed broccoli and carrots or baked beans.

How to make turnip and parsnip chips

This method can be used to make chips (or fries or wedges) out of most root vegetables. They're very simple to make.

1. Simply peel your turnips and parsnips and cut them into wedge or chip shapes.
2. Cover with oil and season well before baking.
3. When they're almost done drizzle over our honey and cinnamon and voila! You have deliciously sweet turnip and parsnip wedges. Surely one of the most delicious ways there is to eat root veg.

If you want to make these turnip and parsnip chips suitable for vegans simply substitute the honey for maple syrup.
