ROASTED ROOT VEGETABLES



Roasted Root Vegetables image

Root vegetables (with the exception of potatoes and carrots) are some of the most overlooked and under appreciated food stuffs around. But these nutritional storehouses are hidden treasures worthy of your notice. Not only are they available in winter when other vegetables are hard to find, they are also very inexpensive. Experiment with turnips, rutabagas, beets and parsnips, and learn what they have to offer in taste and versatility. Rutabaga (also known as swede) is an accidental vegetable -- the result of a chance hybridization of turnips and cabbage. Like carrots, they're low in sodium and high in vitamin C. The flavor of all root vegetables will be enhanced by selecting fresh, firm produce (preferably organically grown) and storing it carefully. Turnips and potatoes should be stored in a cool, dark place out of the refrigerator. The rest of these roots will keep well in the refrigerator for at least a week. From Dr. Weil

SAVORY ROASTED ROOT VEGETABLES



Savory Roasted Root Vegetables image

Beets were my sworn enemy until I tried them like this, it's a great way to use root vegetables. I think the beets add a beautiful red color to the dish, but if it bothers you to serve pinkish vegetables, substitute parsnips, rutabaga, or any similar vegetable; be creative!

Time 1h15m

ROASTED ROOT VEGETABLES WITH POLENTA



Roasted Root Vegetables With Polenta image

In this comforting, perfect winter dinner I roast the vegetables and make the polenta in the oven at the same time. To accommodate the temperature requirements of each element of the dish, I use a slightly higher temperature than I usually use for polenta and I roast the vegetables at a lower temperature for longer. I top the polenta with a ladleful of marinara sauce, and spoon the vegetables on top. You could serve the polenta with only the roasted vegetables as well, so I have made the marinara sauce optional.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Categories     dinner, main course

Time 1h30m

Yield Serves 4 to 6

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 large carrots (3/4 to 1 pound), peeled and cut into 3/4-inch pieces (quarter at the fat ends, cut in half at the thin ends, then cut in thick slices)
1 large parsnip (about 1/2 pound), quartered, cored and cut in 3/4-inch pieces
1 medium-size fennel bulb, quartered, cored and cut in 3/4 inch pieces
1 medium or large red onion, cut in large dice
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
Chopped fresh rosemary, thyme or sage, about 2 teaspoons (optional)
1 cup polenta
1 quart water
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan (optional but recommended)
1 batch marinara sauce (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line a sheet pan or a baking dish with parchment or foil. Toss vegetables with the olive oil and salt and pepper to taste. Add fresh herbs if using. Spread vegetables in an even layer.
  • Combine polenta, water, and salt in a 2-quart baking dish and stir together. Place polenta and vegetables in the oven. If you can't fit both pans on the same (middle) rack, place vegetables on a lower rack. Roast vegetables for 30 to 40 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes or until soft and beginning to caramelize. Remove from the oven.
  • If serving this with marinara sauce, make the sauce while the vegetables and polenta are in the oven.
  • Continue to bake the polenta until it has been in the oven for 40 to 45 minutes and has absorbed the water. Remove from oven and stir in butter. Use a fork or a spatula to stir the polenta well, and return to oven for 5 to 10 more minutes. Remove from oven and stir again. Carefully taste a little bit of the polenta; if it is not completely soft, return to the oven for 5 to 10 more minutes.
  • Remove polenta from oven and stir in 1/3 cup grated Parmesan, if using. Immediately spoon polenta onto plates and make a depression in the middle. Ladle on some marinara sauce and top with a generous spoonful of roasted vegetables. Sprinkle on remaining Parmesan and serve.

Tips:

  • Choose the right vegetables: Root vegetables like carrots, parsnips, turnips, and potatoes are all great choices for roasting. You can also use other vegetables like Brussels sprouts, zucchini, and squash.
  • Cut the vegetables into uniform pieces: This will help them cook evenly. If the pieces are too small, they will overcook and become mushy. If they are too large, they will take too long to cook and may not be tender in the center.
  • Toss the vegetables with oil and seasonings: This will help them brown and develop flavor. You can use olive oil, coconut oil, or avocado oil. For seasonings, you can use salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, or any other herbs and spices that you like.
  • Roast the vegetables at a high temperature: This will help them caramelize and develop a crispy exterior. The ideal roasting temperature is between 425°F and 450°F.
  • Stir the vegetables occasionally: This will help them cook evenly. You can also use a spatula to flip the vegetables halfway through the roasting time.
  • Roast the vegetables until they are tender and slightly browned: The cooking time will vary depending on the type of vegetables you are roasting. For most root vegetables, it will take about 20-30 minutes.

Conclusion:

Roasted root vegetables are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed as a side dish or a main course. They are also a great way to get your daily dose of vitamins and minerals. With a little planning and preparation, you can easily make roasted root vegetables at home. So next time you're looking for a healthy and flavorful dish, give roasted root vegetables a try!
