These roast parsnips are far from a simple side dish. Adding a buttery coating alongside sweet cinnamon, sugar and lemon zest amplifies seasonal produce into something special. When preparing the parsnips, part-boil them first, as this makes sure they’re soft and fluffy on the inside after baking. Roasting parsnips in this tasty marinade enhances their natural sweetness, and this works for carrots, too. Serve these at the Christmas dinner feast, alongside a Sunday roast or even as part of your weekday lunches.
