  • carrot
  • bell pepper
  • beetroot
  • butternut squash
  • parsnip

Method

  1. Pre-heat oven to 220C.

  3. Root vegetables (beets, potatoes, carrots): 30 minutes.
  4. Winter squash (butternut squash, acorn squash): 20 minutes.
  5. Crucifers (broccoli, cauliflower, Brussels sprouts): 15 minutes.
  6. Soft vegetables (zucchini, summer squash, bell peppers): 15 minutes.
  7. Thin vegetables (asparagus, green beans): 15 minutes.
  8. Onions: 30 minutes, depending on how crispy you like them.
  9. Tomatoes: 15 minutes.
  10. Alternatively just fuck them all into the roasting dish and go with it :) Works equally well.
  11. Before placing in the roasting dish mix the veg in the salt, olive oil and pepper. Flavoursome additions.
  12. Roast till the edges of the veg just start to singe.
  13. Garnish with coarsely chopped parsley. It adds a lovely freshness.
