This elegant vegetarian side dish offers a sophisticated twist on classic winter vegetables. The parsnip purée is exceptionally smooth and creamy, providing a sweet, earthy base that contrasts beautifully with the lightly charred Brussels sprout leaves. By sautéing the leaves individually rather than boiling the whole sprout, you achieve a delicate texture and a nutty, caramelised flavour that can win over even the most sceptical diners.
Ideal for a festive Christmas spread or a refined Sunday roast, this dish brings a touch of modern flair to the table. The vibrant green leaves against the pale purée create a stunning visual appeal, while the combination of textures ensures every mouthful is interesting. Serve it alongside roasted root vegetables or a nut roast for a truly comforting seasonal meal.

Ingredients for Parsnip Purée with Sautéed Brussels Sprouts Leaves
1.4kg parsnips, peeled, quartered lengthwise, and cut into 1-inch pieces
3/4 stick unsalted butter, cut into pieces
1 1/2 cups whole milk
275g Brussels sprouts
1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
45ml water
How to make Parsnip Purée with Sautéed Brussels Sprouts Leaves
Cook parsnips in a 5-to 6-quart pot of boiling water with 1 tablespoon salt, covered, until very tender, 15 to 20 minutes, then drain.
Purée hot parsnips with butter, milk, and 1/2 teaspoons each of salt and pepper in a food processor until smooth. Season with salt, then transfer to a serving dish and keep warm, covered.
Meanwhile, remove and reserve all but smallest leaves from Brussels sprouts, trimming stem ends as necessary.
Heat oil in a 12-inch heavy skillet over medium-high heat until it shimmers, then cook leaves, tossing occasionally, until browned in patches, 2 to 3 minutes. Add water and cook, tossing, until leaves are slightly wilted and water has evaporated, 1 to 2 minutes. Season with salt and scatter leaves over parsnip purée.
