Steps:
- Preheat oven to 220C or 425F.
- Peel the parsnips and cut the ends off. Then cut lengthways down the middle, and again down the middle. This leaves you with 4 long pieces. Then cut the parsnips in half so you have 8 pieces per parsnip. They should look a bit like a finger of a fat chip/fry!
- Place in a saucepan with cold water and a pinch of salt, and bring to the boil.
- Keep an eye on the parsnips once the water starts to boil. After approximately 7 - 10 minutes drain the parsnips and set aside. (7 -10 minutes is from when the water starts to boil)
- Whilst the parsnips are in the saucepan cooking, place a baking pan with the oil in and leave until hot and sizzling.
- Then place the parsnips in the hot oil and spoon some of the oil over them. Cook for about 15 minutes, turning them over halfway through. If they are not golden and crispy like in the photo, leave them in for a little longer.
- When done, place on some kitchen paper then serve with your dinner. You may wish to sprinkle some salt and pepper

SMOKY PARSNIP CRISPS
Although it takes about an hour to prepare and fry enough chips for eight, it's worth the effort: They are absolutely irresistible. If kept in resealable plastic bags, they'll stay crisp for up to five days.

Steps:
- Shave long, thin strips from parsnips with a peeler (preferably swivel), turning to use all sides. (Reserve ends and cores for another use, such as stock or soup.) Toss parsnip strips by hand to separate.
- Heat 3 inches oil in a heavy medium-size pot until it registers 365 degrees on a deep-fry thermometer. Add parsnip strips to the oil in small handfuls (do not crowd), turning gently with a wire skimmer, until pale gold and crisp, about 45 seconds. Transfer chips to paper towels to drain, and sprinkle with salt. (Return oil to 365 degrees between batches.) Before serving, sprinkle with smoked paprika.

Steps:
- Heat 1 inch oil in a 2 1/2- to 3-quart heavy saucepan over moderate heat until thermometer registers 360°F.
- While oil heats, peel parsnip, then shave as many ribbons as possible from parsnip with vegetable peeler.
- Fry ribbons in 3 batches, stirring frequently, until edges are golden but middles are still pale, about 40 seconds to 1 minute per batch. Transfer parsnips as fried with a slotted spoon to paper towels to drain, then season lightly with salt. (Return oil to 360°F between batches.) Parsnips will crisp as they cool.
PARSNIP CRISPS
Steps:
- Heat peanut oil in a 5-quart Dutch oven over high heat to 370 to 375 degrees F.
- Meanwhile, scrub the parsnips to remove any excess dirt. Lay the parsnip flat on a cutting board, and using a vegetable peeler, peel off 4 to 5 flat, wide noodle-shaped strips. Rotate the parsnip 90 degrees and repeat. Continue to rotate until you can no longer peel strips. Repeat with the remaining parsnips.
- Gently add a small handful of parsnips to the oil, stirring gently, until lightly browned and crisp, approximately 1 to 1 1/2 minutes. Remove the crisps from the oil using a spider or slotted spoon; hold over the pot and allow to drain for 30 seconds. Transfer to a cooling rack set over a half sheet pan and sprinkle with salt and pepper, if desired. After the first batch, the oil temperature may drop. Adjust the heat in order to maintain a minimum temperature of 325 to 350 degrees F. Repeat until all parsnips are cooked. Serve warm or at room temperature. Once completely cooled, store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
PARSNIP CHIPS
Crisp parsnip chips are much sweeter--and prettier--than those made from potatoes.

Steps:
- Using a vegetable peeler (preferably a swivel peeler), peel each parsnip into long, thin strips until you reach core; discard core. Toss strips by hand to separate.
- Heat 4 to 5 inches oil in a Dutch oven until it registers 365 degrees on a deep-fry thermometer. Add a handful of parsnip strips to oil; cook, stirring with a wire or mesh skimmer, until pale golden and crisp, about 30 seconds. Immediately transfer to a paper-towel-lined baking sheet to drain. Season with salt.
- Repeat with remaining strips (adjust heat between batches to keep oil at 365 degrees), transferring cooked chips to a dry section of lined sheet, and seasoning with salt. Serve warm.
