Parsnips...who knew???

I'd never had parsnips before tonight. But I'd found a recipe worth trying and they were pretty good. Very starchy, like a plantain or maybe a yam.

Mix about 4 tbs of olive oil with some salt, pepper and about 2 tbs of minced fresh ginger. Peel the parsnips and cut them into thick strips. Coat them with the olive oil mixture and roast at 325 for 45 minutes.
