Instructions:
- Prep the Vegetables:

- Drain and set aside.
- 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.
- 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.
- Initial Roast:
- Place the tray in a preheated oven at 200°C (400°F).
- Roast for 15 minutes.
- 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.
- Final Roast:
- Return the tray to the oven and roast for an additional 20 minutes, or until the vegetables are golden brown and caramelised.
- Garnish and Serve:
- Once out of the oven, sprinkle with freshly chopped chives for a burst of flavour and colour.
