Categories     Vegetable

Time 1h5m

Yield 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 -2 good-sized rutabaga (about 2 to 3 pounds total)
1 lb carrot, peeled and sliced
3 tablespoons butter
1 medium onion, chopped
1 teaspoon ground pepper
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon marjoram
1/2 teaspoon garlic granules
2 tablespoons flour
3 cups milk
1/2 cup grated cheddar cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Peel and cube the rutabagas into 1/2 inch pieces.
  • Place cubed rutabagas in a pot and add water to cover by 2 inches; bring water to a boil and let simmer for 10 minutes.
  • While rutabagas are simmering, make the white sauce: melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat and add the chopped onion, pepper, salt, marjoram, and garlic and cook until the onion softens, about 5 minutes; stir in flour and cook 3 minutes; add milk and cook, stirring constantly, until mixture comes to a near boil for 3 minutes; remove from heat and set aside.
  • Add carrot slices to the pot containing rutabagas and cook for 5 minutes.
  • Drain cooked vegetables in a colander then put them into a 2-quart casserole or a 9x13-inch pan.
  • Pour the white sauce over vegetables in pan, top with grated cheddar cheese, then lightly cover with foil and bake at 350 degrees F until hot and bubbly, about 20 to 30 minutes.
  • Remove foil and broil for about 5 minutes or until the cheese is browned to your preference.
  • Serve and enjoy!
  • Notes: Rutabagas"resemble a large turnip and are coated with wax to help preserve them; it is a bit of an effort to cut and peel them, but is well worth it"- leftovers from this dish taste great reheated!

Tips:

  • Choose the right rutabagas and carrots. Look for firm, smooth vegetables with no blemishes. Choose rutabagas that are about the same size as the carrots, so they cook evenly.
  • Peel and dice the vegetables evenly. This will help them cook evenly and ensure that the finished dish has a uniform texture.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan. When cooking the vegetables, make sure to give them enough space so that they can brown properly. If the pan is too crowded, the vegetables will steam instead of brown.
  • Season the vegetables well. Salt and pepper are essential, but you can also add other spices and herbs to taste. Some good options include garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and thyme.
  • Cook the vegetables until they are tender. The vegetables should be tender but still have a little bit of bite to them. Overcooked vegetables will be mushy and bland.
  • Serve the vegetables immediately. Rutabaga and carrot puff is best served hot and fresh out of the oven. You can garnish it with fresh herbs or a dollop of sour cream.

Conclusion:

Rutabaga and carrot puff is a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that is perfect for any occasion. The combination of sweet rutabagas and carrots is complemented perfectly by the crispy puff pastry. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
