Prepare two pots of boiling water.

Parboil the Brussels sprouts for 3-4 minutes.

Drain the Brussels sprouts and place them in cold water to stop the cooking process.

Drain the parsnips and dry them on kitchen roll.

Preheat the oven to gas mark 7.

Add goose fat to a baking tray and place it in the oven to heat up.

Once the goose fat is hot, add the parsnips to the tray and let them sizzle for about 1 minute on each side to seal the skin.

Roast the parsnips in the oven for 30-40 minutes, checking after 15 minutes for browning.

Drizzle honey over the parsnips after 15 minutes of roasting and return them to the oven.

Check the parsnips every 10 minutes to prevent burning and ensure caramelization.

After 35 minutes, check the parsnips for color and caramelization, and return them to the oven for another 10-15 minutes.
