Roasted vegetables are a delicious dish served on it's own or with your favorite meat, poultry or seafood entree. These typically hard vegetables are boiled or steamed first to tenderize and then roasted in a hot oven to bring out the natural sugars. The result is a tender and tasty dish that is perfect comfort food.
Cook's Notes:
The trick with roasted vegetables is to make the pieces similar in size and to pre-cook some or all of the vegetables before roasting so that everything finishes cooking in the oven at the same time. Roasting at high heat crisps the vegetables, giving them wonderful texture on the outside while the insides are soft and tender.
