Roasted Potatoes with Tomatoes, Basil, and Garlic image

Simple and light. The roasted tomato gives a light and tangy flavor which balances with the starchiness of the potatoes. Use a red or yellow potato for best flavor. Garlic, fresh basil, and a hint of rosemary add to the aroma. My girlfriend loves this as a side with chicken or pork.

Yield Serves 6 as a main course

Number Of Ingredients 12

6 medium carrots, cut diagonally into 1/8-inch-thick slices
2 fennel bulbs (sometimes called anise), stalks trimmed flush with bulb and bulb cut lengthwise into 1/8-inch-thick slices
1 1/2 pounds small red potatoes, cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices
1 1/2 pounds green beans, trimmed
3 to 4 tablespoons hot water
1 1/4 cups basil pecan pesto
For the pesto:
2 cups packed fresh basil leaves, washed well and spun dry
2/3 cup olive oil
1/2 cup pecans, toasted golden brown and cooled
1/3 cup freshly grated Parmesan
2 large garlic cloves, chopped and mashed to a paste with 1/2 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • To prepare the vegetables:
  • On a large steamer rack layer carrots, then fennel, and then potatoes and steam over boiling water, covered, until potatoes are tender, about 10 minutes. Transfer steamed vegetables to a platter. Steam beans, covered, until just tender, about 10 minutes, and transfer to a platter. In a food processor blend pesto with 3 tablespoons hot water, adding additional hot water if necessary to reach desired consistency.
  • Serve vegetables warm at room temperature with pesto.
  • To make the pesto:
  • In a food processor blend together all ingredients with salt and pepper to taste until smooth. Pesto keeps, surface covered with plastic wrap, chilled, 1 week. Makes about 1 1/4 cups.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, vibrant vegetables for the best flavor and texture. Look for brightly colored, crisp vegetables that are free of blemishes.
  • Steam the vegetables just until tender-crisp to preserve their nutrients and color. Overcooking will make them mushy and bland.
  • Use a variety of vegetables to create a colorful and flavorful dish. Some good options include broccoli, carrots, asparagus, bell peppers, and zucchini.
  • Make sure the tomato and basil dressing is well-seasoned before tossing it with the vegetables.
  • Serve the steamed vegetables immediately with the tomato and basil dressing. Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.

Conclusion:

Steamed vegetables with tomato and basil dressing is a healthy, flavorful, and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a quick and easy weeknight meal. The steamed vegetables retain their nutrients and vibrant color, while the tomato and basil dressing adds a pop of flavor. This dish is also a great way to get your daily dose of fruits and vegetables.
