Roast Veg

26 June 2020 by Deborah Leave a Comment

Roast Veg, Roast Veg

Up until about a year ago, we tended to only have roast veg with a Sunday roast or at Christmas…don’t ask why…I can’t answer!! Then last April we picked up the food magazine from the local Co-op and there was a recipe for a spring potato salad…it’s delicious.   There are new potatoes, asparagus, and spring onions which are all cooked in the oven, and then sliced sugar snap peas and crumbled feta are added after, along with a yogurt dressing.   We have made it a few times, but it gave me the idea of roasting more than just the usual potatoes and root veg, which I’ve now cooked a few times since.   

Roast veg is a great side dish to have with fish, chicken, pork, meat….the choice is yours.   Try it with or without potatoes – sometimes it’s nice to have a baked potato, mash, or simply boiled potatoes!

So, let’s get choosing the veg you fancy and get cooking!!

Tips

  • The selection of vegetables you want to roast is entirely up to you!
  • Just bear in mind that some vegetables won’t need to be roasted for the full 35 minutes – potatoes are best to be parboiled (see tip below) and cooked for the full amount of time. Root vegetables, leeks, onions, and peppers also need the full cooking time.  
  • If including vegetables like broccoli, asparagus, green beans, spring onions, sugar snap peas, I’d suggest the following timings:
    • broccoli – 20 minutes
    • asparagus, green beans, sugar snap peas, spring onions – 15 minutes
  • Potatoes – I’d suggest that you parboil them first in boiling salted water for 3-8 minutes depending on the type of potatoes. For baby potatoes – slice in half and parboil for 3 minutes.   For potatoes like Maris Piper, Rooster, and King Edwards – peel (if you wish – I like to leave the skins on), cut into chunks, and parboil for 8 minutes.  Regardless of the type of potato, always drain and leave to dry in their own steam for a couple of minutes before adding to the roasting dish with the other vegetables you’ve chosen.
