Parsnips and turnips in a casserole?

bella2121

I'm going to sound thick now but I've never cooked with these before.

I'm doing a beef casserole so far I have new potatoes, onions, carrots in there going to add mushrooms later. I also have turnip (I think it's turnip anyway its white with a purple ring round looks like a swede) and parsnips will these be nice in the casserole or cooked separately, I don't like them personally but I'm making it for OH and DS2, I've been given the veg so trying to use it up and be very MSE

Any thoughts appreciated x

parsnips are lovely in a stew/casserole but can make it a bit sweet - you may want to add a bit extra onion to counterbalance it, but overall I'm sure you will find it very tasty

I cook with parsnip and carrot together often.

(I cook it like this, but don't put the butternut squash in sometimes)

Any root veg gets chucked into my casseroles and DH says they taste fine

I avoid eating parsnips as they give me indigestion so I make sure they are in identifiable chunks.

I put them in stews, that's actually the only time I have turnip!
