Roast Vegetable Megamix Recipes

ROASTED VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Lightly oil a baking sheet or coat with nonstick spray. Place broccoli florets, mushrooms, butternut squash, zucchini, squash, bell pepper and onion in a single layer onto the prepared baking sheet. Add olive oil, balsamic vinegar, garlic and thyme; season with salt and pepper, to taste. Gently toss to combine. Place into oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until tender.* Serve immediately.

ROAST VEGETABLE MEGAMIX

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 190ºC/375ºF/gas 5. Bring two large pans of salted water to the boil.
• Scrub the beets, then place in one of the pans - keep them separate to stop the rest of your veg turning red! Parboil for 20 to 25 minutes.
• Meanwhile, peel the carrots and parsnips, then chop any bigger ones in half along with the turnips. Trim and quarter the fennel.
• Place the prepped veg together in the second pan and parboil for 10 minutes. Drain all the veg and leave to steam dry, then separate them out so you can hit them with those different flavours.
• Toss the beets with the balsamic vinegar and whole herb sprigs.
• Toss the carrots with the clementine juice and throw in the squeezed halves, then pick over the rosemary leaves.
• Toss the parsnips with the vinegar and tear over the sage leaves. Reserve the honey for later.
• Toss the turnips with the vinegar and bay.
• Toss the fennel with the lemon juice, then pick over the thyme leaves.
• Lay them out on a large tray, keeping each veg type together. If you're making this ahead, you can get up to this stage the day before, then cover them with tin foil and keep them with your spuds till your turkey is resting. Nothing will discolour because of the oil and acid.
• Roast for 50 minutes to 1 hour, or until golden, crispy and beautiful. About 5 minutes before the veg are ready, drizzle the honey over the parsnips.
• Once ready, give the tray a jiggle, then pile the veg on a platter.

ROAST VEGETABLE MEGA MIX

Steps:

• If any of your carrots, parsnips or turnips are particularly big, chop them in 1/2. You can parboil the carrots, fennel, parsnips, and baby turnips together-everything except the beets, as they'll turn everything else red! The beets also take quite a bit longer to cook, around 20 to 25 minutes. Put the rest of the vegetables into a large pot, cover with cold water and season well. Bring to the boil and cook for about 6 to 7 minutes until you've got part-cooked, softened bendy vegetables, and then drain in a colander and leave to steam dry. Get yourself a small tray, and use it to mix up each set of vegetables with their own gorgeous flavours, a few good lugs of oil and a good pinch of salt and pepper. Toss the carrots, clementines and rosemary together first and move them to a larger roasting tray so they're all together. Then mix your fennel with its flavours and do the same... When you get to the parsnips, keep the honey back for later. Make sure each vegetable group is separate in the roasting tray. Cover the tray with tin foil and keep in the refrigerator or the garage until your turkey is out of the oven and resting. When you are ready to cook them, preheat your oven to 375 degrees F/ 190 degrees C/ Gas 5. Roast the vegetables in the hot oven for 50 minutes to 1 hour until they are golden, crispy and beautiful looking. Five minutes before they are ready to come out of the oven take the tray out, drizzle the honey over the parsnips and jiggle the tray so they are nicely coated. Pile all the vegetables up on a platter so they sprawl and hang all over the place. That platter is like winter in a nutshell, and every single mouthful will taste different and exciting - you'll definitely want to keep it close to you at the table.

EASY ROASTED VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Tip the broccoli, sweet potatoes, red peppers, courgettes, onion, garlic and tomatoes into a bowl and add the olive oil along with plenty of salt and pepper. Toss well, then tip onto a large baking tray or two smaller trays, ensuring everything is in an even layer.
• Put in the oven and roast for 35-40 mins, tossing halfway, until cooked through and lightly caramelised.

ROASTED MIXED VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Prepare the vegetables: Heat oven to 425 degrees. Add the vegetables to a rimmed sheet pan. Add 2 tablespoons oil, the salt, pepper and thyme (if using), and gently toss vegetables to coat. Use your hands to spread the vegetables out into one layer, spacing them evenly all over the pan.
• Transfer to the oven and roast until they are tender and browned, 30 to 40 minutes, stirring at least once during roasting for even cooking.
• While vegetables roast, you can make yogurt sauce if you like: In a small bowl, combine yogurt, garlic, oil, salt and pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning. Cover and place in the refrigerator until ready to use.
• Serve roasted vegetables with a dollop of garlic yogurt, if desired, and a drizzle of oil on top.
