Embark on a culinary adventure with our roasted root vegetables transformed by the vibrant flavors of chermoula. This tantalizing dish showcases a medley of hearty vegetables, including carrots, parsnips, turnips, and sweet potatoes, caramelized to perfection. The chermoula, a North African marinade, infuses each bite with a harmonious blend of herbs, spices, and citrus, creating a symphony of flavors that dance on your palate. Whether you're seeking a delightful side dish or a wholesome main course, these roasted root vegetables with chermoula promise a satisfying and unforgettable dining experience.
This versatile recipe offers three delectable variations to suit your preferences. The classic chermoula marinade combines the earthy notes of cumin, coriander, and paprika with the zesty brightness of lemon and orange. For a touch of smokiness, the harissa chermoula incorporates spicy harissa paste, adding a fiery kick to the dish. And if you're drawn to Mediterranean flavors, the chermoula with preserved lemons and olives adds a briny, tangy twist that will transport you to the shores of the Mediterranean.
Each chermoula variation pairs seamlessly with the roasted root vegetables, enhancing their natural sweetness and creating a delightful interplay of flavors. As the vegetables caramelize in the oven, their edges become crisp and golden brown, while the interiors remain tender and succulent. The chermoula marinade seeps into every crevice, infusing the vegetables with its aromatic and flavorful essence.
These roasted root vegetables with chermoula are not only a feast for the taste buds but also a vibrant and colorful addition to your table. The vibrant orange of the carrots, the pale yellow of the parsnips, the earthy brown of the turnips, and the deep orange of the sweet potatoes create a visually stunning dish that will impress your guests. Serve them as a side dish alongside grilled meats or fish, or enjoy them as a hearty and satisfying main course.
ROASTED ROOT VEGETABLES WITH CHERMOULA
Here, a medley of root vegetables and winter squash are roasted with chermoula (also spelled charmoula), a quintessential Moroccan spice combination. (Any combination will work in this dish; start with about 12 cups of peeled vegetable pieces.) Be sure to peel turnips well; their skin is thicker and more fibrous than other root vegetables'. Exchanges: 2 starch, 1 vegetable, 2 fat (2 Carbohydrate Servings). From EatingWell magazine, September/October 2008 and posted for ZWT 6 - North Africa / Middle Eastern region.

ROASTED ROOT VEGETABLES
Root vegetables (with the exception of potatoes and carrots) are some of the most overlooked and under appreciated food stuffs around. But these nutritional storehouses are hidden treasures worthy of your notice. Not only are they available in winter when other vegetables are hard to find, they are also very inexpensive. Experiment with turnips, rutabagas, beets and parsnips, and learn what they have to offer in taste and versatility. Rutabaga (also known as swede) is an accidental vegetable -- the result of a chance hybridization of turnips and cabbage. Like carrots, they're low in sodium and high in vitamin C. The flavor of all root vegetables will be enhanced by selecting fresh, firm produce (preferably organically grown) and storing it carefully. Turnips and potatoes should be stored in a cool, dark place out of the refrigerator. The rest of these roots will keep well in the refrigerator for at least a week. From Dr. Weil

SAVORY ROASTED ROOT VEGETABLES
Beets were my sworn enemy until I tried them like this, it's a great way to use root vegetables. I think the beets add a beautiful red color to the dish, but if it bothers you to serve pinkish vegetables, substitute parsnips, rutabaga, or any similar vegetable; be creative!
