Method
- Fill a bowl with water and the lemon juice. Peel the roots under running water, cut into 5 cm lengths and drop straight into the lemon water to stop them browning. Wear gloves, as the sap is sticky.
- Simmer in salted water for 12–15 minutes until tender, then drain.
- Melt the butter in a frying pan and cook until it smells nutty and turns light brown.
- Toss the roots in the brown butter and cook for 3 minutes until lightly golden.
- Scatter with parsley and serve.
