  • 2 tablespoons Stokes Cider & Horseradish Wholegrain Mustard
  • Fresh chives, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions:
  1. Prep the Vegetables:
    • Peel the parsnips and carrots. If the parsnips are large or older, use a paring knife to remove the fibrous core.
    • Cut the parsnips and carrots into evenly sized pieces to ensure they cook evenly.
  2. Parboil the Veg:
    • Place the parsnips and carrots into a saucepan, cover with cold water, and bring to a boil.
    • Cook until the vegetables are slightly soft but still firm, with a knife meeting resistance when inserted.
    • Drain and set aside.
  3. Prepare the Tray:
    • Add oil and whole garlic cloves to a roasting tray.
    • Warm the tray in the oven for 3-5 minutes to heat the oil and infuse the garlic flavour.
  4. Coat the Vegetables:
    • Remove the tray from the oven and tip in the parboiled parsnips and carrots.
    • Add rosemary, salt, and pepper, then toss everything together to ensure the vegetables are fully coated in oil.
  5. Initial Roast:
    • Place the tray in a preheated oven at 200°C (400°F).
    • Roast for 15 minutes.
  6. Add Honey and Mustard:
    • Remove the tray from the oven and drizzle the honey over the vegetables.
    • Add a few dollops of Stokes Cider & Horseradish Wholegrain Mustard.
    • Toss gently to combine and evenly coat the vegetables.
  7. Final Roast:
    • Return the tray to the oven and roast for an additional 20 minutes, or until the vegetables are golden brown and caramelised.
  8. Garnish and Serve:
    • Once out of the oven, sprinkle with freshly chopped chives for a burst of flavour and colour.
    • Serve warm and enjoy these delicious honey and mustard roasted carrots and parsnips.
