Additional Info
Method
- Wash the parsnips, no need to peel them.
- Slice lengthwise. Place them in a roasting pan with the 2 tbsp olive oil and 2 tbsp maple syrup and toss well.
- Roast them in 180°C oven for about 35 to 40 minutes, or until tender inside and crispy golden on the outside. Remove from oven and allow to cool.
- Place all the salad dressing ingredients in a jar, screw on the lid, and shake vigorously.
Cut away the stems from the kale leaves and discard them. Place the kale leaves on top of one another and shred finely. Place the shredded kale in a large salad bowl and toss with the vinaigrette. Let the kale rest for 30 minutes to absorb the dressing. - Deseed the pomegranate. Add the pomegranate seeds and the cooled roasted parsnip to your salad and toss.
Serving Suggestion
Garnish with toasted hazelnuts (simply place hazelnuts in a skillet on medium heat for about 5 minutes, stirring frequently so they don’t burn) and freshly grated Parmesan.
