Instructions: Peel and quarter parsnips. Remove any woody center. Parboil until slightly tender (do not overcook or they will be mushy after frying). Drain. In fry pan

(preferably a cast iron pan) melt butter (do not substitute margarine for this). Add parsnips in a single layer and saute over medium high heat to brown the parsnips, turning to brown the other side. Be careful not to burn butter!

Pour maple syrup over parsnips to cover the parsnips half-way. Grate nutmeg over top. Stir. Taste and add more nutmeg, if desired.
