How to cook deliciously - Creamed Spinach and Parsnips

1. Stage

In a large, deep skillet, melt 2 tablespoons butter in oil. Add parsnips and cook over moderately high heat, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned, about 6 minutes. Add shallots and cook, stirring, until softened, about 2 minutes. Add stock and thyme and bring to a boil. Season with salt and pepper, cover, and simmer over low heat until parsnips are tender, about 8 minutes.

2. Stage

Meanwhile, fill a large, deep pot with 2 inches water and bring to a boil. Add spinach in large handfuls and blanch, stirring, just until wilted, about 10 seconds. Drain and cool under running water. Squeeze spinach dry and coarsely chop. Stir spinach into parsnips.

3. Stage

In a medium saucepan, melt remaining 2 tablespoons butter and cook over moderately high heat until lightly browned, about 4 minutes. Whisk in flour and cook, whisking, 1 minute. Whisk in half-and-half and nutmeg, season with salt and pepper, and bring sauce to a boil, whisking until thickened, about 2 minutes. Stir sauce into spinach and parsnips and bring to a simmer. Transfer to a bowl and serve.
