Take note
Be careful when handling sharp knives and hot trays!

1

Preheat the Oven

First things first, preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). This will ensure that your root vegetables roast evenly and develop a lovely golden crust.

2

Prep the Root Vegetables

Wash and peel your chosen root vegetables. You can use a variety of veggies like carrots, parsnips, sweet potatoes, beets, and turnips. Cut them into even-sized pieces so that they cook evenly. No one wants a half-crisp-half-soggy veggie mess!

3

Toss with Oil and Seasonings

Drizzle a generous amount of olive oil over your chopped root vegetables. Give them a good toss to make sure every nook and cranny gets coated. Season with salt, pepper, and any other spices you desire. Feel free to get creative here!

4

Spread Evenly on a Baking Tray

Arrange your seasoned root vegetables in a single layer on a baking tray. If they're too crowded, they'll just steam instead of getting those crispy edges we all love. Give them some space!

5

Roast to Perfection

Pop the tray of glorious root vegetables into the preheated oven. Roast for about 30-40 minutes, or until they are tender on the inside and beautifully caramelized on the outside. Give them a gentle stir halfway through cooking to promote even browning.

6

Serve and Enjoy

Once your root vegetable medley is perfectly roasted, remove it from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Serve it as a side dish, toss it into salads, or simply enjoy it on its own. Your taste buds will thank you for this explosion of flavors!
