ROASTED CARROTS AND TURNIPS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Toss the turnips and carrots with olive oil, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Spread out on a baking sheet, leaving some space between the vegetables so they roast. If they are too close together they will steam.

Place the cut vegetables on a sheet pan. Add the olive oil, salt, and pepper and toss well. Roast for 20 to 40 minutes, depending on the size of the vegetables, tossing occasionally, until the parsnips and carrots are just tender. Sprinkle with dill and serve hot.

Cover the vegetables with a round of parchment paper just large enough to fit the inside diameter of the pan, or with a lid set ajar. Simmer the vegetables until tender, about 8 to 10 minutes. Remove the cover and raise the heat to high. Toss the vegetables frequently in the pan, as the liquid evaporates to a shiny smooth glaze. Season with salt and pepper to taste and serve.
