Parsnip is most often cooked in soups and gratin and less often in stir fries or sautés. I personally very much like the taste of sautéed parsnip.
If cooking time is kept short, I quite enjoy a more flavoursome fried taste with a reasonable level of intact nutrients.
There’s one thing I can never get enough of is scrambled tofu. And no Saturday brunch would be complete with some delicious scramble tofu!
I have long been tossing the idea of adding diced parsnip to my tofu scramble. I’m glad I tried because it was a well tasty brunch! This tofu scramble is incredibly tasty with the addition of some black bean sauce. You might also like this Vegetable Tofu Scramble recipe with crunchy bean sprouts.

I would have never thought to put parsnips in a tofu scramble. What a wonderful idea!
The is possibly the most beautiful tofu scramble I’ve ever seen. It sounds yummy too.
For some reason I’ve never cooked with parsnips – this scramble looks delicious, and a good reason to finally try them.
Yum! Your scramble looks delicious, and now I’ll have to try parsnip in mine!
