Great way to do parsnips!!! This recipe provides a wonderful mix of flavours and the timing is just right. I had to substitute regular white wine vinegar for the sherry vinegar because it's what I had on hand. Everyone at Christmas dinner raved about this dish.

A great side dish! The veggies were sweet and soft. I didn't have sherry vinegar or plain sherry wine, so I used 2 tablespoons of cooking sherry and 4 tablespoons of dry white wine. Since cooking sherry is so salty, I didn't use any additional salt. Four thumbs up--mine AND hubby's.

Very tasty combination of spices. This is a great side dish. I wished that I had some mashed potatoes to go along with it. I will definitely make this again, but with a little less thyme. I made the "original" because I didn't have any sweet potatoes. But I will next time. Thanks kiwidutch.

Thank you for posting this great recipe Meanie...My family really enjoyed the carrotes and parsnips done this way...we like sweet carrotes with spices so I added 1/2 tsp cardamon and 1/4 tsp mace to the dish along with the herbs listed in the recipe...it was delicious.

Wonderful mix. I used the Claypot method. Reduced the liquids since I was using the claypot and ignored the butter except for a sprinkle of butter sub. Adapted very very well and the flavors blended nicely.

Parsnips & carrots are made for each other and this recipe proves it. Your instructions are very clear and straight forward except you did not specify fresh or dried Rosemary & Thyme, I assumed that you meant fresh so cut back as I used dried. I did cut the core out of the parsnips as they were quite large and would have been tough .I used sweet & low brown sugar substiture in place of regular brown sugar. They looked great and tasted lovely
