Categories     Yam/Sweet Potato

Time 1h15m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 lbs sweet potatoes, peeled and cut 1/2 inch thick
2 lbs carrots, peeled and cut in 1/2 slices on the diagonal
1 lb butternut squash, peeled and cut in 2 inch wedges (or acorn squash)
2 orange bell peppers, seeded and cut in thick slices
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 tablespoons maple syrup
2 tablespoons thyme, chopped or 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
2 tablespoons parsley, chopped

Steps:

  • Combine the prepared vegetables in a large bowl and toss with oil. Spread onto a large non-stick rimmed baking sheet. Use parchment paper if you like, but I didn't find it necessary.
  • Roast at 375 degrees for 45 to 60 minutes, stirring once or twice, until browned and tender.
  • Combine the vinegars and remaining ingredients in a small bowl and toss with the hot, cooked vegetables. Sprinkle with parsley.

Tips:

  • Choose the right vegetables: Root vegetables like carrots, parsnips, and turnips are all great choices for this recipe. They should be firm and have no blemishes.
  • Cut the vegetables evenly: This will help them cook evenly. If you are using a variety of vegetables, cut them into similar-sized pieces.
  • Use a good quality balsamic glaze: This is the key ingredient in this recipe, so make sure to use a good one. You can find balsamic glaze at most grocery stores.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When roasting the vegetables, make sure to spread them out in a single layer. This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from steaming.
  • Roast the vegetables until they are tender: This will usually take about 20-30 minutes. You can check to see if they are done by piercing them with a fork. They should be tender but still have a little bit of bite to them.
  • Serve the vegetables immediately: These vegetables are best served hot or warm. You can garnish them with fresh herbs like parsley or thyme.

Conclusion:

This recipe for root vegetables with balsamic glaze is a delicious and easy side dish that is perfect for any occasion. The balsamic glaze adds a sweet and tangy flavor to the vegetables, and the roasting process brings out their natural sweetness. This dish is sure to be a hit with everyone at your table.
