Ingredients

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
2 pounds parsnips, peeled and sliced into circles
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Herb Butter:

1/2 pound unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup mixed chopped fresh herbs, like chervil, parsley and chives
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Directions

Put the olive oil and butter into a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the vegetables and toss to coat them well with the fat; season with salt and pepper. Add 1 cup water and bring to a boil. Lower the heat to a simmer, cover the pot, and cook until the vegetables are tender, about 20 minutes.

Meanwhile, make the Herb Butter by combining the soft butter and herbs together; season with some salt and pepper.

To serve, spread some Herb Butter in the bottom of a bowl. Add the hot vegetables and dot with more Herb Butter. Moisten with some of the cooking liquid and serve.

Try recipe as printed. If you DON'T like some of herbs suggested...try again but with your favorites. Suggestion: Roast in... the oven. Same flavors but stove top vs oven...different textures.Read more

A very easy recipe to try, and a tasty way to be introduced to parsnips! I used half the recipe and fresh herbs from the... garden (parsley, chives and oregano) for the butter.Read more

Had guests over for dinner and none of us had ever had parsnips. Everyone enjoyed them. I have to agree that the butter... recipe can be easily cut in 1/2, it makes a lot. Read more
