Tips:

  • Choose firm, fresh vegetables: Vegetables that are too soft or wilted will not hold up well in the roasting process.
  • Cut vegetables into uniform pieces: This will help them cook evenly.
  • Toss vegetables with olive oil and seasonings before roasting: This will help them caramelize and develop flavor.
  • Roast vegetables at a high temperature: This will help them get crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.
  • Keep an eye on the vegetables while they are roasting: You may need to stir them occasionally to prevent them from burning.
  • Serve roasted vegetables warm or at room temperature: They can be enjoyed as a side dish, main course, or salad.
