Slow Roasted Root Vegetables 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:

• Heat oven to 425 degrees. Peel vegetables (optional) and cut them into 1- to 2-inch chunks, put them in a baking pan and toss with the oil and a sprinkling of salt and pepper.
• Put the vegetables in the oven and roast without stirring for 20 minutes, then check. If they look dry and are sticking to the pan, drizzle with more oil. Continue roasting, stirring or turning the vegetables once, for another 20 minutes or so. Stir in the herbs, then return the pan to the oven for another 20 to 40 minutes, until crisp. Remove from the oven. Garnish with rosemary or thyme.

• Whisk together tomato sauce, brown sugar, chili powder, cumin, mustard powder, and garlic powder. Pour mixture over beef. Cover and cook on LOW for 12 hours or on HIGH for 8 hours.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Peel the parsnips, carrots, celery root and potatoes and cut them into one-inch cubes. Slice the celery and onion. Leave the garlic cloves whole in their skins.
• Put the vegetables in one layer in one or two large baking dishes and toss them in the oil so they are thoroughly coated. Sprinkle them with rosemary, thyme, salt and pepper.
• Bake the vegetables for an hour and a half (turning them from time to time so they brown on all sides). Do not let them get too dark or they will develop a bitter taste. Put the vegetables on a serving platter, correct seasoning and garnish with rosemary sprigs.
