    Heat a baking tray in a hot oven. Drain the potatoes and allow them to sit in the sieve above the hot pan you just drained, this will help the steam dry.

  5. 5

    Don’t season them yet, put them straight into the oven and roast at 190-200 C for 30 mins.

    After 30 mins bring out the tray and turn the potatoes. Add the parsnips and coat everything in oil.

  7. 7

    Return to the oven for 60 minutes keeping a close eye on everything.

  8. 8

    When the veg is golden brown and really crispy, tip them into a bowl lined with kitchen paper to drain.

    Then turn the veg into a heated serving dish and season now with good quality sea salt and pepper. Now it’s ready to eat!
