Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Peel and cut the turnips into thin sticks resembling traditional French fries. Try to keep them about 1/4 inch thick for even cooking.
In a large bowl, toss the turnip sticks with olive oil, making sure they are evenly coated.
Sprinkle the garlic powder, salt, black pepper, and dried oregano over the oiled turnips and toss again to distribute the seasonings evenly.
Spread the turnips out on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer, making sure they are not overcrowded to allow maximum crispiness.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes, then remove from the oven and flip each fry over using a spatula.
Continue baking for another 10 minutes until they are golden brown and crispy.
Remove the fries from the oven and immediately sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese and fresh parsley.
Let the fries cool for a few minutes and serve them warm. Enjoy your low carb crispy garlic fries as a healthy snack or side dish!
