What you need for this recipe

Serves 6

2 large parsnips
1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, minced
2 garlic cloves, chopped
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
sea salt and black pepper to taste
½ teaspoon sweet paprika
natural ketchup

Recipe Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 450°F. Line an 18 × 26-inch rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. Peel the parsnips and trim the ends. Cut each parsnip in half horizontally, then make 2 cuts in each direction to create 9 sticks out of each half. In a large bowl, toss the parsnip sticks with the rosemary, garlic, olive oil, sea salt, pepper, and sweet paprika.

3. Spread the fries over the prepared baking sheet. Roast for 10 minutes, flip, and then roast for another 10–15 minutes, until browned and crispy. Serve with the ketchup.
