SEAN'S MOMMY'S ROASTED ROOT VEGETABLES
I wanted to do something different as a vegetable side dish. It was Thanksgiving, so I got a bunch of root vegetables and roasted them. They were a hit and are now a staple at our holiday table. I cook them during the year sometimes, as well.

Honeynut squash (butternut also works well), parsnips, leeks, and Granny Smith apples are roasted with fresh thyme and sage, then pureed for the base of this satisfying soup. Brown butter adds wonderful depth of flavor, and each bowl is finished with crispy fried sage and a trio of seeds (pumpkin, sesame, and poppy).

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees, with racks in upper and lower thirds. Scoop seeds and pulp from squash; discard. (Or lightly coat seeds in oil, season with salt, and roast on a rimmed baking sheet until crisp and darkened slightly, about 20 minutes; let cool and reserve for garnish.) On a rimmed baking sheet, rub squash halves with 1 tablespoon oil and season with salt; turn cut-sides down. On another rimmed baking sheet, toss parsnips and leeks with remaining 1 tablespoon oil, season with salt, and sprinkle evenly with thyme and chopped sage; spread in a single layer.
- Roast 30 minutes. Add apples to sheet with squash, cut-sides up. Continue roasting until vegetables turn golden brown in places and are easily pierced with the tip of a knife, 15 to 20 minutes more. When cool enough to handle, scoop flesh from squash; transfer half to a blender with half of other vegetables and apples, 2 cups broth, and 1 cup water. Puree until smooth, adding more water as needed if too thick to self-level. Pour through a sieve into a pot. Repeat process with remaining vegetables, apples, broth, and 1 more cup water.
- Melt butter in a small saucepan over medium heat, swirling occasionally, until fragrant and golden brown and dark-brown sediment particles form in bottom of pan, 8 to 10 minutes. Stir brown butter into soup; season with salt and pepper. Rewarm soup over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally and adding more water as necessary until it reaches desired consistency.
- Wipe pan clean. Heat 1/4 inch of oil over medium-high. When it shimmers, add a handful of sage leaves; cook, stirring a few times, until darkened slightly, 20 to 30 seconds. Transfer to paper towels, season with salt, and let stand until cool and crisp, 2 to 3 minutes. Fry more sage as desired. Serve soup topped with crisped sage, pepitas, sesame seeds, poppy seeds, and a drizzle of oil.
SPICY SQUASH & PARSNIP SOUP
Spicy (medium) and sweet, warming soup. Can be eaten as a starter or main course as it's quite filling. For a low-fat option, you can use more stock instead of the coconut milk. You can also vary the 'heat' of the spiciness by leaving out the chilli.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 200C/400F/Gas 6.
- Place the butternut squash and parsnips onto a baking tray and drizzle with the honey and olive oil.
- Place in the oven to roast for 30-40 minutes, or until tender.
- Then heat a frying pan until hot and add the onion and garlic and fry for 1-2 minutes until the onions become translucent.
- Add the butternut squash, parsnips, chilli and spices to the onions and garlic and stir the ingredients until everything is pretty much coated with the spices.
- Now add the coconut milk and stir gently over a low-medium heat, being careful not to burn the mixture, for 3-4 minutes.
- Transfer this mixture to a food processor and blend to a smooth consistency.
- Now add the stock to the food processor and blend more.
- Finally transfer the soup to a saucepan, heat through and season, to taste, with salt and black pepper.
- To serve, ladle the soup into serving bowls and place a spoonful of creme fraiche on the top. This is also nice with fresh bread roll on the side.
Tips:
- Choosing the right vegetables: Select firm and brightly colored squash, parsnips, and potatoes. Avoid any vegetables that have blemishes or soft spots.
- Cutting the vegetables: Cut the vegetables into uniform sizes so that they cook evenly. For squash and parsnips, cut them into 1-inch cubes. For potatoes, cut them into quarters or eighths, depending on their size.
- Seasoning the vegetables: Drizzle the vegetables with olive oil and sprinkle them with salt, pepper, and any other desired seasonings. Toss the vegetables to coat them evenly.
- Roasting the vegetables: Spread the vegetables in a single layer on a baking sheet. Roast them in a preheated oven at 425°F for 25-30 minutes, or until they are tender and slightly browned.
- Serving the vegetables: Serve the roasted vegetables immediately as a side dish or main course. You can also add them to salads, soups, or stews.
Conclusion:
Roasting squash, parsnips, and potatoes is a simple and delicious way to enjoy these healthy and flavorful vegetables. By following these tips, you can create a perfectly roasted vegetable dish that will be a hit with everyone at your table.
