These roasted root vegetables are colorful and delicious. More importantly, they can be partially prepared so as to ease the amount of preparation on turkey day. I often serve them with roast beef as well. The recipe can be easily scaled to suit a smaller yield.

SLOW-ROASTED WINTER VEGETABLES



Slow-Roasted Winter Vegetables image

OVEN ROASTED WINTER VEGETABLES



Oven Roasted Winter Vegetables image

This is a Delia Smith recipe, which I love and use often, so thought I'd share. It introduced me to celeriac, which isn't the same as celery, by the way. You can prepare the vegetables a couple of days in advance, if need be, and keep sealed in a plastic bag in the fridge.

Provided by Sherrie-pie

Categories     Winter

Time 1h

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

12 shallots, peeled
12 ounces peeled and deseeded butternut squash
12 ounces peeled sweet potatoes
12 ounces peeled swede
12 ounces peeled celeriac
1 tablespoon freshly chopped mixed herbs (rosemary and thyme, for example)
2 large garlic cloves, peeled and crushed
3 tablespoons olive oil
salt & freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to gas mark 7/425F/220°C.
  • You will need a large baking tray - approx 11 x 16 inches.
  • Cut the vegetables into large, chunky pieces - about 11/2 inches/4cm - leaving the celeriac unti last as it will discolour if left in the open air too long. Put vegetables in a large bowl, add the herbs, garlic, olive oil and lots of seasoning and mix (use your hands). Spread the vegetables out on the baking tray and cook in the pre-heated oven on a high shelf for 30 - 40 minutes, until they're tender and turning brown at the edges.

Tips:

  • Utilize a variety of vegetables: Explore different types of winter vegetables to create a colorful and flavorful dish. Some popular choices include butternut squash, parsnips, carrots, turnips, and Brussels sprouts.
  • Roast the vegetables properly: Ensure even cooking by cutting the vegetables into uniform sizes and tossing them with a combination of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread them in a single layer on a baking sheet to prevent steaming.
  • Maximize flavor with herbs and spices: Enhance the taste of your roasted vegetables by incorporating herbs like thyme, rosemary, or oregano. Experiment with spices such as cumin, paprika, or chili powder for a more vibrant flavor profile.
  • Add a touch of sweetness: To balance the savory flavors, consider adding a touch of sweetness with ingredients like honey, maple syrup, or balsamic vinegar. This will create a delightful contrast and enhance the overall taste.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: To ensure proper roasting and prevent steaming, avoid overcrowding the baking sheet. Spread the vegetables in a single layer, allowing air to circulate freely around them.
