Parsnip Teriyaki with Sesame Ginger Rice

Substitute:

  • No parsnips? Use any root veg, like celeriac, carrots, Jerusalem artichokes or turnips. 
  • No honey? Swap for any sweetener you like – maple syrup or caster sugar would work. 
  • No rice? Try using noodles instead. 
  • No spring onions? Use coriander, chives or parsley.
