Roasted Vegetable And Wine Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Roast vegetables:
• Preheat oven to 450°F with rack in middle.
• Wash leek halves and pat dry.
• Toss leek, carrots, garlic, bell peppers, plum tomatoes, fennel, and onions with oil, then spread in a 17- by 14-inch roasting pan and roast, stirring occasionally, until well browned and tender, 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 hours.
• Soak porcini and make bouquet garni while vegetables roast:
• Pour boiling water over porcini in a bowl and soak until softened, 10 to 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, wrap celery, parsley stems, thyme sprig, peppercorns, and bay leaves in a piece of cheesecloth and tie with string.
• Lift out porcini, squeezing excess liquid back into bowl, and rinse to remove any grit. Pour soaking liquid through a sieve lined with a dampened paper towel into another bowl.
• Make stock:
• Transfer roasted vegetables to a 6- to 8-quart pot and add wine to roasting pan, then deglaze pan by boiling, scraping up brown bits, 1 to 2 minutes. Add wine to vegetables in pot along with water (4 quarts), porcini and soaking liquid, bouquet garni, sun-dried tomatoes, and 2 teaspoons salt. Bring to a boil, then simmer, uncovered, until stock is reduced to about 6 cups, about 2 hours. Pour through a fine-mesh sieve into a large bowl, pressing firmly on and then discarding solids.
• Make sauce:
• Melt butter in a 3-quart heavy saucepan over medium heat and whisk in flour, then cook roux, whisking, 3 minutes. Add stock in a stream, whisking constantly to prevent lumps, then bring to a boil, whisking. Reduce heat and simmer, whisking occasionally, until slightly thickened, about 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Mix veggies with marinade
• place with the foil wrapped garlic in a jelly roll pan (or cookie sheet) at 400 for about 45 minutes, depending how small your veggies are cut (your garlic may need longer cooking time than the veggies).
• After veggies are cooked, mash garlic with fork (or garlic press) and mix half in with the veggies and save half for the tomato sauce.
• Mix sauce ingredients in large saucepan (including roasted garlic).
• add red wine after tomatoes have cooked down a bit.
• Simmer for about 30 minutes.
• Ladle sauce over hot noodles.
• top with veggies and grated Parmesan cheese.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a shallow baking pan with foil.
• Arrange cauliflower, broccoli, onion, and garlic in a single layer on the prepared pan. Drizzle with oil; toss to coat.
• Roast in the preheated oven until tender and lightly browned, about 25 minutes.
• Melt butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add flour; cook and stir 1 minute. Add broth, roasted vegetables, salt, pepper, and thyme. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Reduce heat and simmer, covered, 10 minutes, adding spinach during the last 4 minutes to wilt. Cool slightly; puree in a blender or with an immersion blender. Serve hot. Or chill, covered, up to 3 days, and reheat for another use.
