Ingredients

2 parsnips, peeled
2 sweet potatoes, peeled
2 beetroot, scrubbed
Filippo Berio Mild & Light Olive Oil for deep frying
Sea salt to taste

Method

Thinly slice the parsnips, sweet potatoes and beetroot - the thinner the slices the crisper the crisps will be. Blot the slices with kitchen paper to remove excess moisture.
Half fill a pan or deep fat fryer with Filippo Berio Mild & Light Olive Oil and heat to 180°C/350°F. Deep fry the vegetable slices in batches for 3-4 minutes at a time, stirring occasionally until golden. Drain well on kitchen paper.
Toss the vegetable crisps together and season to taste with sea salt. Serve.
