Ingredients:
450 g parsnips
35 g butter
25 g flaked almonds
15 g brown sugar
1 pinch ground mixed spice
1 tablespoon lemon juice
salt and pepper
chopped parsley ( to garnish)
Directions:
Cook parsnips in boiling salted water until almost tender.
Drain well.
When they are cool enough to handle, cut each one in half across its width, then quarter these halves lengthways.
Heat butter in a frying pan and cook the parsnips and almonds gently, stirring and turning carefully until they are lightly flecked with brown.
Mix together the sugar and spice, sprinkle over the parsnips and stir to mix, then trickle over the lemon juice.
Season to taste with salt and pepper and heat for 1 minute.
Serve sprinkled with chopped parsley.
