Roasted Winter Vegetables With Rosemary And Calamata Olives Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Place butternut squash, yams, sweet potatoes, parsnips, carrots, turnip, mushrooms, shallots, and garlic in a large bowl. Add rosemary, salt, and pepper. Toss until evenly mixed, then add oil and toss until coated. Pour into large baking pans so that the vegetables are no more than 1 1/2 inches deep.
• Bake in the preheated oven, tossing and scraping the bottom every 30 minutes, until vegetables are very tender, at least 90 minutes; longer is better.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F.
• Peel and trim the parsnips and carrots. Cut the slender ends into 1 1/4- to 1 1/2-inch lengths. Cut the fat ends in half lengthwise and then into 1 1/4- to 1 1/2-inch lengths.
• Peel and trim the turnips. If small, cut them into wedges about 1/2- to 3/4-inch thick. If large, cut the turnip in half through the equator, then cut into wedges. Peel the sweet potatoes. Cut in half lengthwise and then slice lengthwise about 1/2 inch thick; cut slices into 1 1/4- to 1 1/2-inch sections.
• In a 9x13-inch baking dish, toss the parsnips, carrots, turnips, sweet potatoes, and shallots with the oil and salt. Roast for 25 minutes. Add the rosemary and garlic, toss again, and continue roasting until the vegetables are browned and tender, another 20 to 25 minutes. Scrape out into a serving dish, sprinkle with the pepper, and serve hot.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F/200°C/gas 6. Peel and cut the vegetables into equal sized pieces, about 1-in/2.5-cm chunks. Toss vegetables and onions in olive oil in a large bowl and season generously with salt and pepper.
• Spread the pieces out in a single layer on one or two roasting pans/trays so that the vegetables don't touch. Roast until the veggies are lightly browned and just tender, 45 minutes to 1 hour, depending on the vegetable. Remove and toss with additional olive oil. Season with salt and pepper and garnish with parsley before serving.

Steps:

• Place the first seven ingredients in a greased 15x10x1-in. baking pan. Combine the oil, salt, thyme and pepper; drizzle over vegetables and toss to coat., Bake, uncovered, at 425° for 30-35 minutes or until tender, stirring occasionally.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Cut the carrots, parsnips, sweet potato, and butternut squash in 1 to 1 1/4-inch cubes. All the vegetables will shrink while baking, so don't cut them too small.
• Place all the cut vegetables in a single layer on 2 baking sheets. Drizzle them with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Toss well. Bake for 25 to 35 minutes, until all the vegetables are tender, turning once with a metal spatula.
• Sprinkle with parsley, season to taste, and serve hot.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Brush 2 large rimmed baking sheets with oil. In a large bowl, toss all vegetables with oil and season with salt and pepper. Divide vegetables between baking sheets. Top with thyme and roast until golden and tender, 30 to 35 minutes, rotating sheets and tossing vegetables halfway through.

Steps:

• Position 1 rack in bottom third of oven and 1 rack in center of oven and preheat to 400°F.
• Spray 2 heavy large baking sheets with nonstick spray.
• Combine all remaining ingredients except garlic in very large bowl; toss to coat.
• Season generously with salt and pepper.
• Divide vegetable mixture between prepared sheets.
• Place 1 sheet on each oven rack.
• Roast 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Reverse positions of baking sheets.
• Add 5 garlic cloves to each baking sheet.
• Continue to roast until all vegetables are tender and brown in spots, stirring and turning vegetables occasionally, about 45 minutes longer.
• (Can be prepared 4 hours ahead. Let stand on baking sheets at room temperature. Rewarm in 450°F oven until heated through, about 15 minutes.) Transfer roasted vegetables to large bowl and then serve.
• Makes 8 servings.
