Meanwhile, wrap garlic in foil and bake for 1-0-15 minutes to soften, which makes it sweeter too
Drain parsnips and allow to steam and dry a bit
Use a stick blender to mash the parsnips and add all other ingredients
For a really smooth parsnip puree press the puree through a sieve before serving with a little melted butter and some more fresh thyme and a little torn parsley
