ROASTED POTATOES, CARROTS AND LEEKS



Roasted Potatoes, Carrots and Leeks image

This is a combination of several recipes I've seen on food.com and on other sites. This can be very versatile, using whatever type of potatoes and veggies you have on hand, IMO, all veggies taste best when they are roasted. :-) You can also change or add whatever herbs and spices you prefer or happen have on hand and adjust amounts according to your taste. I used dry herbs but I'm sure fresh would be even better.

Time 1h5m

6 -8 potatoes
1 lb baby carrots
1 leek
olive oil
2 teaspoons garlic, minced or
1 teaspoon garlic powder
2 teaspoons dried parsley

salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  • Spray 2 large roasted pans or casserole dishes with non-stick spray. .
  • Wash and chop potatoes in to large bite-sized pieces (try to chop roughly the same size for even cooking). Feel free to peel the potatoes before chopping them, I did. .
  • After rinsing potatoes dry very well with paper towels or a clean dish towel. .
  • Divide potatoes evenly between the roasting pans. .
  • Add baby carrots to both roasting pans. .
  • Slice dark green parts and end of root tip off of the leeks. .
  • Slice the leek vertically from light green end toward root, but leave it attached at the root. .
  • Turn the leek over on its side and slice it vertically again. .
  • Rinse the heck out of the leek, making sure there is no grit in between the layers. .
  • Chop the leeks in to 1 inch pieces. .
  • Reserve the leeks for later. .
  • Drizzle olive oil over the potatoes and carrots and season liberally with salt, pepper and herbs of your choice (I used dried parsley and thyme). .
  • Make sure potatoes and carrots are in a single layer, if they overlap they went crisp up as well for you. .
  • Place in a 400 degree oven in the top 1/3 of the oven for 30 minutes. .
  • Remove the pans from the oven, add the leeks and the minced garlic and a touch more oil if necessary, and turn the potatoes and carrots and combine with the leeks and garlic. .
  • Place pans back in to the oven and continue to roast for an additional 25-30 minutes until it is as cooked through and browned and crispy as you prefer. .
  • *I used one metal roasting pan and one ceramic casserole pan and the potatoes and carrots browned faster and nicer in the metal pan. .
  • **making sure the potatoes and vegetables are dry before adding to the pan and drizzling with oil will help them to crisp up better. .

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 tablespoons butter, plus more for the dish
2 leeks, halved, thinly sliced and soaked in cold water for 30 minutes
3 sprigs fresh thyme, leaves picked
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 pounds Yukon gold potatoes
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup chicken stock

BAKED POTATOES, LEEKS AND CARROTS



Baked Potatoes, Leeks and Carrots image

A very simple vegetable dish, great with any kind of meat or fish. Adapted from the Silver Spoon book of Italian cooking. A food processor makes this dish quite quick to prepare.

Provided by Sackville

Categories     Potato

Time 1h15m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

400 g potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced
300 g leeks or 300 g onions, thinly sliced
200 g carrots, peeled and thinly sliced
6 fresh basil leaves, torn or 6 fresh parsley, chopped
salt and pepper, to taste
50 g emmenthaler cheese or 50 g cheddar cheese, grated
olive oil, for brushing and drizzling

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 180 C or 350°F.
  • Brush a dish with oil (earthenware is recommended) and mix the potatoes, carrots and leeks in the dish along with the parsley or basil, salt and pepper.
  • Spread evenly in the dish, cover with foil and bake for 60 minutes or until vegetables are tender.
  • Remove the foil, sprinkle with cheese and return to the oven until the cheese melts.
  • Serve hot straight from the dish.

Tips:

  • Select the Right Potatoes: Choose firm and unblemished potatoes with a uniform size. Russet potatoes are a popular choice due to their fluffy texture when baked.
  • Wash and Scrub Thoroughly: Before baking, scrub the potatoes thoroughly under running water to remove any dirt or debris. You want a clean surface for even cooking.
  • Poke Holes in the Potatoes: Use a fork to poke several holes in each potato. This allows steam to escape during baking and helps prevent the potatoes from bursting.
  • Rub the Potatoes with Olive Oil: Coat the potatoes in extra virgin olive oil. This helps crisp up the skin and adds a beautiful golden brown color.
  • Season Generously: Sprinkle the potatoes with salt and freshly ground black pepper. You can also add other herbs and spices like garlic powder, paprika, or dried thyme for extra flavor.
  • Roast the Potatoes at a High Temperature: Bake the potatoes at a high temperature (425°F or 220°C) for a crispy exterior and fluffy interior. This usually takes around an hour, depending on the size of the potatoes.
  • Check for Tenderness: Insert a fork or skewer into the center of a potato to check for tenderness. If it goes in easily, the potato is done baking.
  • Let the Potatoes Cool Slightly: Allow the potatoes to cool for a few minutes before handling to prevent them from breaking apart.
  • Serve with Desired Toppings: Baked potatoes are a versatile dish that can be served with various toppings. Some popular options include butter, sour cream, cheese, chives, or a dollop of yogurt.

Conclusion:

Baked potatoes are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed as a main course or a side dish. With the right techniques and a few simple ingredients, you can achieve perfectly baked potatoes every time. Experiment with different toppings and seasonings to create your favorite combinations. Whether you prefer them plain or loaded, baked potatoes are a hearty and satisfying meal that will satisfy your cravings. So, gather your ingredients, preheat your oven, and get ready to enjoy a comforting and flavorful baked potato feast!
