Method

  1. Preheat the oven to gas 7, 220°C, fan 200°C. Peel and slice the parsnips into 2cm-wide fingers. Divide these, the olive oil and the melted butter between two baking trays; season and toss to coat. Roast for 35 mins, turning halfway, until tender and starting to turn golden.
  2. Meanwhile, bring the clear honey, crushed chillies and cider vinegar to a simmer in a small pan, stirring. Season, then simmer over a low heat for 1 min. Set aside to infuse while the parsnips are roasting.
  3. Toss the roasted parsnips in all but 2 tbsp of the infused honey, then roast for 15-20 mins more until golden and caramelised. Drizzle with the rest of the hot honey and scatter with extra crushed chillies to serve, if you like.
