Ingredients

  • 400 g of parsnips, small
  • 400 g of carrots
  • 1 orange, zest and juice
  • 50 ml of maple syrup
  • 1 small handful of fresh thyme
  • 2 tbsp of olive oil

Method

  • Step 1

    Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas 7. Place a large roasting tin in the oven to heat up.

  • Step 2

    Meanwhile, peel small parsnips and carrots and slice lengthways in half or in quarters so they are roughly the same size. Place the carrots and parsnips in the hot tray.

  • Step 3

    Drizzle over olive oil and a small handful of thyme leaves, and stir to coat. Season with salt and black pepper and place in the oven for 20 mins.

  • Step 4

    While they’re roasting, mix the zest and juice of an orange together with maple syrup in a small bowl. Remove from the oven and drizzle the orange and maple syrup mix over the veg, return to the oven for 10 mins or so, until tender and caramelised.
