- ¼ cup finely chopped fresh rosemary
- 2 beets
- ¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
- 1 large sweet potato
- ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 4 cloves garlic
- 2 carrots
- 1 ½ teaspoons flaky sea salt
- 4 parsnips
Step 1: Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). By starting with a hot oven, your vegetables will caramelize beautifully, giving you that nice, crispy edge.
Step 2: Prepare the Vegetables
While the oven is heating, prepare your vegetables. Start by peeling and chopping the beets, sweet potato, carrots, and parsnips. Make sure to cut them into similar sizes for even cooking. Aim for about 1-inch chunks.
Step 3: Combine the Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, combine all your chopped vegetables. Add the freshly chopped rosemary, garlic, olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt, and pepper. Use your hands or a spatula to mix everything until all the vegetables are well coated with oil and seasonings.
Step 4: Spread on a Baking Sheet
Step 5: Roast Until Tender
Step 6: Serve
Once roasted to perfection, remove them from the oven. Taste and adjust seasoning, if necessary. They’re ready to be served! This dish is best enjoyed warm but can be served at room temperature as well.
- Uniform Sizes: Keep your vegetable pieces similar in size to ensure even cooking.
- Stir Occasionally: Halfway through roasting, use a spatula to stir the vegetables for better browning.
- Experiment With Herbs: While rosemary is fantastic, feel free to mix in other herbs like thyme or oregano for a flavor twist.
- Add Crunch: Toss in some chopped nuts like walnuts or pecans just before serving for added texture.
- Make It a Meal: Add chickpeas or lentils for a hearty vegetarian dish that serves as a main course.
