**** Introduction ****

Having a suprise visit from my in laws this dinner time led me into a state of panic as I was preparing a mini roast dinner for me and my partner, as I was roasting a small joint only big enough to feed me and my partner and maybe a few sandwiches later on.

But is was smelling so good the in laws commented which led to the fate full question " Would you like to stay for dinner " to my horror they excepted to i dug through the freezer to see what I had that could pad out the meal and make it look like I actually had enough to feed them.

anyway as I reache the bottom of the freezer I cam across these frozen parsnips from sainsburys, I vaguely remember buying them but they bacome the lfe saver for me today.

**** The Product ****

In this bag I got roughly fifiteen rater large size parsnip pieces, which bulked out the meal and become the talking point after I later admitted I didnt actually have enought to feed everyone.

These are frozen so they only needed to be warmed up and roasted to make them crispy.

I steamed them for roughly fiften minutes and them added them to the roast potato tray of hot oil about tem minutes befor I was ready to serve.

to my suprise they looked really good and golden brown when I took them our of the oven, they tasted just the same if not better then a fresh parsnip as it seemed to have a little bit more floavour to them.

The centers were nice and soft and the outer parsnip was nice and crispy which in my opinion were cooked to perfection but I cant really take the crediti as I only steamed and then roasted them as I would have done with a fresh parsnip.

**** My Views ****

I am so suprised at these parsnips as I expected them to be rather soft and soggy but they turned out much better that a fresh parsnip, so I will certainly buy them again.

I can remember exctly how much these were but somthing tell be I would have only paid £1 - £2 pounds for them as they would have been bought for a reserve and they certainly helped me out today.

If you are in sainsburys i strongly recommend that you try these as they are much easier and taste much better than the fresh parsnips.
