Tips:
- Choose firm vegetables: Vegetables that are too soft, such as zucchini and mushrooms, will become mushy when roasted. Choose firmer vegetables, such as carrots, potatoes, and Brussels sprouts, that will hold their shape.
- Cut vegetables into uniform pieces: This will help them cook evenly. If you have a variety of vegetables, cut them into pieces that are all about the same size.
- Toss vegetables with oil and spices: This will help them brown and caramelize in the oven. You can use any type of oil you like, but olive oil is a good choice. As for spices, Moroccan-inspired spices such as cumin, coriander, and paprika are a great option.
- Roast vegetables at a high temperature: This will help them caramelize and get crispy. Aim for a temperature of 425 degrees Fahrenheit (220 degrees Celsius).
- Roast vegetables until they are tender: This will vary depending on the type of vegetable. For example, carrots will take longer to cook than Brussels sprouts. Insert a fork into the vegetables to check for tenderness.

Roasted Moroccan-style vegetables are a delicious and healthy side dish that can be enjoyed with a variety of meals. They are easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences.
