A great recipe for a creamy parsnip crumble with a curry twist.

If you find yourself with stale bread, let it dry out and then rub into crumbs or use a food processor to crumb it. Bag up and keep in the freezer until required.

Don’t forget parsnips taste much sweeter after they’ve been frosted. The frost makes them turn starches into sugars.
