Steps:
- Heat oven to 425 degrees. Peel vegetables (optional) and cut them into 1- to 2-inch chunks, put them in a baking pan and toss with the oil and a sprinkling of salt and pepper.
- Put the vegetables in the oven and roast without stirring for 20 minutes, then check. If they look dry and are sticking to the pan, drizzle with more oil. Continue roasting, stirring or turning the vegetables once, for another 20 minutes or so. Stir in the herbs, then return the pan to the oven for another 20 to 40 minutes, until crisp. Remove from the oven. Garnish with rosemary or thyme.

ROASTED AND MARINATED ROOT VEGETABLES
Crisp the vegetables up after they've had a chance to soak up the marinade-or don't, they're delicious at room temperature, or even served cold.

Steps:
- Prep:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Depending on the size and type of the root, peel it or not. Peel the dirty, gnarly beets. Sweet potato skins soften up when roasting, so leave those on. For thinner-skinned turnips, a good scrubbing will do.
- Cut the roots into chunks; I like them about 1 inch thick and 2 inches long. Cut the round roots through the equator and chunk them up from there. For sweet potatoes, cut them in half lengthwise, then again lengthwise, and then into 2-inch pieces. If you can find baby sweet potatoes, just cut those in half. There's no wrong way to do this; just keep all of your vegetables similar in size and shape so they cook evenly.
- Roast:
- Preheat an ovenproof sauté pan large enough to hold the root vegetables in one layer over medium-high heat. Add the rice bran, grapeseed, or olive oil and continue heating until the oil shimmers and is thinking about smoking. Carefully add the roots and let them caramelize on one side, 2 to 3 minutes. Check to make sure they're not burning-lower the heat if they're scorching in some spots. Give the roots a toss in the pan (tongs work, too) and season with the salt, sugar, and pepper. Add the thyme and rosemary and transfer the pan to the oven.
- Cook until the vegetables are lightly browned and tender. Start checking with the tip of a sharp knife after 6 minutes and continue to check every 5 minutes. They're done when they're easily pierced all the way through. The beets will cook in about 30 minutes, the turnips in just 10 minutes or less, and the sweet potatoes in 20 minutes. This will depend on the age, variety, and cut of the vegetable, so use your senses (including common sense) and check often.
- Marinate:
- Spoon the roasted vegetables into a large bowl. Discard the herb stems. Add the orange juice or vinegar, extra-virgin olive oil, and chile flakes. Toss until well coated.
- Serve:
- You can serve at this point, or store in the fridge for up to 5 days.

Steps:
- Place 2 baking sheets in the oven and preheat to 425 degrees F.
- Cut all the vegetables into 1 1/2-inch pieces. Cut the onions through the base core to keep some of the layers in chunky pieces. Toss all the vegetables with garlic, olive oil and salt in large bowl. Season generously with pepper.
- Carefully remove the heated baking sheets from the oven, brush or drizzle with olive oil. Divide the vegetables evenly between the 2 pans, spreading them out to assure they don't steam while roasting. Roast the vegetables until tender and golden brown, stirring occasionally, about 45 minutes to 1 hour.

Steps:
- In a large bowl mix the zucchini, eggplant, carrots, tomatoes, onions and peppers with the oil, rosemary, thyme, bay leaves, oregano, garlic, lemon juice, lemon zest, salt and pepper. Cover and chill for at least 2 hours, and preferably overnight.
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
- On a large roasting pan, roast the vegetables, uncovered, for 20 minutes, or until the tomatoes have split and the edges of some of the vegetables are starting to crisp. Remove from the oven and stir before returning to the oven for another 20 minutes. At this time reduce heat to 200 degrees F (95 degrees C) and continue cooking until vegetables are tender, turning every 20 minutes.

ROASTED VEGETABLES
The key to roasting all kinds of vegetables is to know the right temperature for cooking them. Dense, low-moisture vegetables (like the roots and squashes in this recipe) need lower heat and more time in the oven than vegetables with more moisture, like eggplant or zucchini. Then simply toss your vegetables with oil and season with salt and pepper before roasting. Top your roasted vegetable with a couple of fried eggs or a dollop of yogurt, or both, and you have a meal.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 425 degrees. Toss vegetables with oil, salt, and pepper. Roast, 30 minutes to an hour, stirring at least once or twice during roasting for even cooking and browning.
- Serve with fried eggs and/or yogurt, ground black pepper and plenty of torn herbs on top.
Tips:
- Choose the right vegetables: For best results, select firm, fresh root vegetables that are free of blemishes and bruises.
- Cut the vegetables evenly: This will ensure that they cook evenly.
- Toss the vegetables with oil and seasonings: This will help them to brown and caramelize in the oven.
- Roast the vegetables at a high temperature: This will help them to develop a crispy exterior and tender interior.
- Marinating the vegetables: Marinating the vegetables overnight or for at least 30 minutes before roasting helps to infuse them with flavor and keep them moist.
- Use a variety of herbs and spices: Experiment with different herbs and spices to create a flavorful marinade.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: When roasting the vegetables, make sure to leave enough space between them so that they can cook evenly.
- Roast the vegetables until they are tender: The roasting time will vary depending on the type of vegetables you are using. Insert a fork or knife to check for tenderness.
Conclusion:
Roasted and marinated root vegetables are a delicious and healthy side dish that can be enjoyed with a variety of meals. They are easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With a little planning and preparation, you can create a flavorful and visually appealing dish that will impress your family and friends.
