Servings: 4
Ingredients
- Parsnips
- 2 large, peeled and cut into fry shapes
- Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons
- Salt

- Black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon
- Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon
- Garlic
- 2 cloves, minced
- Mayonnaise
- 1/2 cup

Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
- In a large bowl, combine the cut parsnips with olive oil, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Toss well to ensure the parsnips are evenly coated.
- Spread the seasoned parsnip fries in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, ensuring they are not overcrowded for maximum crispiness.
