Roasted Parsnip And Apple Salad
- 4 whole Medium Parsnips
- Salt And Pepper
- 2 Tablespoons Rapeseed Oil
- 4 whole Dessert Apples, Cut Into Eighths, Cores Removed
- 1-7/8 ounces, weight Lightly Toasted Pecans
- 4 whole Handfuls Of Salad Leaves
- _____
- FOR THE DRESSING:
- 1 clove Garlic, Crushed To A Paste
- 1 teaspoon English Mustard
- 2 teaspoons Clear Honey
- 1 Tablespoon Lemon Juice
- 4 Tablespoons Rapeseed Oil
- Preheat the oven to 190u0b0C. Peel the parsnips, quarter them and remove the woody core if necessary, then chop them into roughly 2cm pieces.
- Put the parsnips on a large roasting tray, scatter with some salt and pepper and toss with the oil. Roast for 10 minutes, then take them out of the oven, give them a stir, add the apple pieces and return to the oven for about 15 minutes until tender and golden brown.
- Meanwhile make the dressing by whisking all the dressing ingredients together. Check the seasoning. (The whisking is important here, stirring just won't cut it.) Also lay some pecans on a baking tray and place under the broiler for a minute or two so they are lightly toasted.
- When the parsnip and apple pieces are cooked, transfer them to a bowl and toss them in the dressing.
- Arrange the salad leaves on plates, top with the warm, dressed parsnip and apple, then finish off with the toasted nuts.
- Serve and devour immediately!
