Freezing veggies - parsnips and cauliflower cheese

Amanda65

Hi all

I have just purchased a large bag of parnips from Tesco that I need to do something with today as they go out of date. I will cook some up to go with our roast today and would like to freeze the rest. I normally peel, par boil then roast my parsnips - has anyone frozen these before and at what point do you recommend freezing?

Also want to make up some cauliflower cheese - can I freeze this? Thanks in advance for any help you can give

I freeze cauliflower cheese often, either before putting in the oven or sometimes ready baked depending on how much time i have, both ways are fine,Parsnips I havnt frozen but i think you are doing it the right way,

Ive froze parsnips before after peeling and leaving them to soak in water for 30 mins before freezing immediately. They defrosted fine.

I buy big bags of parsnips and freeze them.

I cut as i would and par boil at this point i lay them on a baking tray and place in a freezer. That way they dont all stick together.

Once frozen i place in a freezer bag.

When needed i roast as i would just allowing a extra 5 mins.
