We just cut them up into chip size and deep fry them from
raw, the same as potato chips (or should that be French
fries :-) They are sweeter than potato chips so don't
necessarily work as a straight substitute depending on the
meal. They make a nice side portion. Just take care not to
over fry them or they can go a bit woody.

The best use for parsnips though has got to be including
them in a roast, wrapped with some meat in foil and cooked
until they caramelise. Not very often we eat them just
boiled.

Curried parsnip soup is good too!
