Roasted Caramelized Veggies Recipe 475

Steps:

• In 3-quart saucepan, heat 1 inch water to boiling. Add potatoes and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Heat to boiling; reduce heat to medium. Cover and cook about 12 minutes or until tender; drain and return to saucepan.
• Meanwhile, in 2-quart saucepan, heat 1 inch water to boiling. Add asparagus. Heat to boiling; reduce heat to medium. Cover and cook about 5 minutes or until crisp-tender; drain and add to potatoes.
• While vegetables are cooking, in 10-inch skillet, melt butter over medium-high heat. Cook onion in butter about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden brown. Stir in vinegar, brown sugar and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Pour onion mixture over potatoes and asparagus; stir until coated. Sprinkle with pepper.

Steps:

• Clean the veggies and cut as you like. Put on a cookie sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and toss. Mix the salt, red chili flakes and spice mixture in a small bowl, then sprinkle on the veggies and toss again coating all well. Put in the skillet of your choice. I serve directly from this skillet to table. Roast in a preheated 425°F oven about 25 to 30 minutes or until done (use a toothpick to test for doneness). Remove, cover loosely with foil and let the veggies rest.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425. Spread the pecans in a pie plate and toast until fragrant, about 6 minutes. Let cool.
• In a large bowl, toss the carrots, parsnips, cauliflower, squash, brussels sprouts with the olive oil and nutmeg and season generously with salt and black pepper. Spread the vegetables on 2 large rimmed baking sheets and roast for 30 minutes until the vegetables begin to brown. Scatter the pecans and ginger over the vegetables and drizzle with maple syrup; toss well. Continue to roast the vegetables for 25 minutes longer, until they are tender and golden. Scrape the vegetables into a bowl and serve hot or at room temperature.
• Note: The roasted vegetables can be kept at room temperature for up to 2 hours before serving.
