The Sunday roast has become a quintessential family tradition in Britain, but it’s good to keep variation to the classic recipes we use time and time again. These parsnips are a great way to bring some spice to the table as the pungent fire of horseradish cuts through the natural sweetness of parsnips. They pair perfectly with chicken, pork or beef and if there’s any left, try making bubble’n’sqeak with the leftovers vegetables.
