Roasted Rutabaga and Potatoes with Carrots image

I wasn't able to find a recipe like this for rutabaga anywhere, so I came up with one on my own, and it was fantastic! Just make sure that you thoroughly cook your rutabaga--it's not so good when it still has that bitter semi-raw taste.

Citrus-Roasted Sweet Potato and Rutabaga image

Roasted sweet potatoes, onions, and rutabaga with various citrus juices squeezed on top. I didn't like sweet potatoes until I made this for my sweet potato-loving family. Now I have them whenever I can! This is a great side dish anywhere you would regularly serve mashed potatoes. Honestly, I've eaten a bowl of just this as a meal. Feel free to season as you'd like.

Provided by dicentra

Categories     Vegetable

Time 35m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 1/2 teaspoons chili powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon garlic salt
1/2 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon cayenne
1 1/2 lbs rutabagas

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 400. Mix first 7 ingredients in a medium bowl.
  • Peel rutabagas and cut them into chunks that are 2 inches long and ½-1 inch wide.
  • Toss with the spice mix.
  • Transfer to a large baking sheet, spreading pieces out evenly.
  • Bake until tender and somewhat browned, stirring occasionally, about 25 minutes.

Tips:

  • To enhance the flavor of roasted rutabagas, try coating them in olive oil, salt, and pepper, or experiment with other seasonings like rosemary, thyme, or garlic powder.
  • Ensure even cooking by cutting the rutabagas into uniform-sized pieces. Smaller pieces will cook faster, so adjust the roasting time accordingly.
  • Roast the rutabagas at a high temperature (400°F or above) to caramelize the natural sugars and create a slightly crispy exterior while keeping the inside tender.
  • Add a splash of water or vegetable broth to the roasting pan to prevent the rutabagas from drying out and to create a flavorful sauce.
  • Roast the rutabagas for 30-45 minutes, or until they are tender when pierced with a fork. If desired, increase the roasting time for a more caramelized flavor and texture.
  • For a visually appealing presentation, sprinkle chopped fresh herbs like parsley or cilantro over the roasted rutabagas before serving.

Conclusion:

Roasted rutabagas are a delicious and versatile side dish that can complement various main courses. Their naturally sweet and earthy flavor pairs well with savory dishes like roasted chicken or pork, hearty stews, or grilled fish. They can also be enjoyed as a snack or incorporated into salads, soups, and other dishes. With their vibrant color and nutritional value, roasted rutabagas add flavor, texture, and color to any meal.
