ROASTED CARROTS AND PARSNIPS WITH THYME



Roasted Carrots and Parsnips with Thyme image

These root vegetables come out of the oven tender and sweet.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Healthy Recipes     Gluten-Free Recipes

Time 45m

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 pound carrots, peeled and halved lengthwise
1 1/2 pounds parsnips, peeled and halved lengthwise (quartered if large)
2 tablespoons olive oil
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 475 degrees. Arrange vegetables in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle oil over vegetables, and lightly toss to coat evenly. Season with salt and pepper, and sprinkle with thyme.
  • Roast vegetables, turning occasionally, until they start to brown and are tender, about 30 minutes. Remove from oven; transfer vegetables to a serving platter, and serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Choose the right parsnips: Look for firm, smooth parsnips with no blemishes or bruises. Smaller parsnips tend to be more tender than larger ones.
  • Peel the parsnips thinly: This will help them roast evenly and prevent them from becoming tough.
  • Toss the parsnips with oil and seasonings: This will help them caramelize and develop a delicious flavor.
  • Roast the parsnips at a high temperature: This will help them get crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.
  • Roast the parsnips until they are tender: You can check this by piercing them with a fork - they should be easy to pierce through.
  • Serve the parsnips immediately: They are best enjoyed hot out of the oven.

Conclusion:

Roasted parsnips with thyme is a simple but delicious side dish that can be enjoyed with a variety of meals. The parsnips are roasted until they are tender and caramelized, and the thyme adds a fragrant touch. This dish is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. For example, you can add other herbs or spices, such as rosemary, sage, or garlic powder. You can also adjust the roasting time to achieve your desired level of crispiness. Roasted parsnips with thyme is a versatile dish that can be served as a side dish, appetizer, or even a main course.
