Recipe for Pan-friend parsnips with cottage cheese and seeds
Enough for 1 person.
1 large parsnip
1 tsp thyme leaves (or another woody herb)
2 tsp olive oil
1 tbsp mixed seeds
Cottage cheese (I had half a tub, approx 125g or 4oz)
Peel the parsnip and slice it finely. I find the easiest way to do this is to cut the parsnip in half and then cut the two resulting pieces in half again along their longest side. You can then place the pieces flat side down on the chopping board and easily cut thin slices.
Fry the parsnip slices and thyme in the olive oil on a medium heat for about 10 minutes until golden and soft, turning occasionally. Dish out the parsnips next to the cottage cheese and sprinkle the seeds over the parsnips.
