Categories     side-dish

Time 2h10m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

Good olive oil
1 1/2 cups sliced yellow onion (1 large)
2 cups (1/4-inch-sliced) fennel, top and core removed
1 tablespoon minced garlic (3 cloves)
1 pound sweet potatoes, peeled and sliced 1/4 inch thick
1 pound celery root, peeled and sliced 1/4 inch thick
1 pound Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and sliced 1/4 inch thick
2 1/2 cups heavy cream
1/2 cup chicken stock, preferably homemade
2 cups grated Gruyere cheese (6 ounces with rind)
2 teaspoons minced fresh thyme leaves
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 1/2 cups coarse fresh bread crumbs, crusts removed

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a 13-by-10-by-2 1/2-inch baking dish.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large (12-inch) saute pan over medium heat, add the onion and fennel and cook for 10 minutes, tossing occasionally, until lightly browned and tender. Add the garlic and cook for one minute.
  • Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine the onion mixture, sweet potatoes, celery root, Yukon Gold potatoes, cream, chicken stock, Gruyere, thyme, 1 tablespoon salt and 1 1/2 teaspoons pepper. Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and press lightly so the vegetables lie flat all the way to the edge. Combine the bread crumbs and 2 tablespoons of olive oil and distribute evenly on top. Bake uncovered for 1 1/2 hours, until the vegetables are very tender when tested with a small knife and the top is browned and bubbly. Allow to set for 15 minutes and serve hot.
  • Make ahead: Bake in advance and reheat while the turkey rests, or assemble the dish, cover and refrigerate for up to 24 hours, then bake before serving.

ROASTED ROOT VEGETABLES WITH POLENTA



Roasted Root Vegetables With Polenta image

In this comforting, perfect winter dinner I roast the vegetables and make the polenta in the oven at the same time. To accommodate the temperature requirements of each element of the dish, I use a slightly higher temperature than I usually use for polenta and I roast the vegetables at a lower temperature for longer. I top the polenta with a ladleful of marinara sauce, and spoon the vegetables on top. You could serve the polenta with only the roasted vegetables as well, so I have made the marinara sauce optional.

Categories     dinner, main course

Time 1h30m

Yield Serves 4 to 6

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 large carrots (3/4 to 1 pound), peeled and cut into 3/4-inch pieces (quarter at the fat ends, cut in half at the thin ends, then cut in thick slices)
1 large parsnip (about 1/2 pound), quartered, cored and cut in 3/4-inch pieces
1 medium-size fennel bulb, quartered, cored and cut in 3/4 inch pieces
1 medium or large red onion, cut in large dice
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
Chopped fresh rosemary, thyme or sage, about 2 teaspoons (optional)
1 cup polenta
1 quart water
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan (optional but recommended)
1 batch marinara sauce (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line a sheet pan or a baking dish with parchment or foil. Toss vegetables with the olive oil and salt and pepper to taste. Add fresh herbs if using. Spread vegetables in an even layer.
  • Combine polenta, water, and salt in a 2-quart baking dish and stir together. Place polenta and vegetables in the oven. If you can't fit both pans on the same (middle) rack, place vegetables on a lower rack. Roast vegetables for 30 to 40 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes or until soft and beginning to caramelize. Remove from the oven.
  • If serving this with marinara sauce, make the sauce while the vegetables and polenta are in the oven.
  • Continue to bake the polenta until it has been in the oven for 40 to 45 minutes and has absorbed the water. Remove from oven and stir in butter. Use a fork or a spatula to stir the polenta well, and return to oven for 5 to 10 more minutes. Remove from oven and stir again. Carefully taste a little bit of the polenta; if it is not completely soft, return to the oven for 5 to 10 more minutes.
  • Remove polenta from oven and stir in 1/3 cup grated Parmesan, if using. Immediately spoon polenta onto plates and make a depression in the middle. Ladle on some marinara sauce and top with a generous spoonful of roasted vegetables. Sprinkle on remaining Parmesan and serve.

ROOT VEGETABLE RAGOûT



Root Vegetable Ragoût image

Categories     Onion     Potato     Side     Roast     Sauté     Low Cal     High Fiber     Low/No Sugar     Carrot     Parsnip     Turnip     Winter     Gourmet

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 pound pearl onions (about 1 cup)
1 medium turnip
1 medium Yukon Gold or other yellow-fleshed potato
2 medium carrots
2 medium parsnips
2 teaspoons vegetable oil
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 cup veal stock (4 fluid ounces)
Garnish: chopped fresh flat-leafed parsley leaves and blanched grated lemon zest

Steps:

  • Have ready a bowl of ice and cold water. Cook onions in boiling water 3 minutes and drain in a colander. Transfer onions to ice water to stop cooking. When onions are cool enough to handle, peel and reserve. Preheat oven to 425°F.
  • Peel remaining vegetables and cut enough into 1/2-inch cubes to measure 3/4 cup each. In a shallow roasting pan toss vegetables (except onions) with oil and roast in middle of oven until tender and golden, about 20 minutes.
  • In a large skillet heat butter over moderate heat until foam subsides and cook onions, stirring, until tender and pale golden. Add roasted vegetables, stock, and salt and pepper to taste and simmer until stock is slightly thickened and coats vegetables, about 2 minutes.
  • Serve ragout garnished with parsley and zest.

Tips:

  • Choose the Right Vegetables: Select firm, fresh root vegetables for the best texture and flavor. Look for carrots, parsnips, turnips, and rutabagas that are smooth and free of blemishes.
  • Cut Vegetables Evenly: Cut the vegetables into uniform pieces so they cook evenly. This will prevent some pieces from becoming overcooked while others remain undercooked.
  • Sauté Vegetables Before Adding Liquid: Sautéing the vegetables in a little butter or oil before adding the liquid helps to develop their flavor and create a richer, more flavorful sauce.
  • Use Good Quality Broth: The broth you use will greatly impact the flavor of the ragoût. Choose a flavorful, low-sodium broth that will complement the vegetables.
  • Season Generously: Don't be afraid to season the ragoût generously with salt and pepper. You can also add other herbs and spices to taste, such as thyme, rosemary, or sage.
  • Simmer until Vegetables are Tender: Simmer the ragoût until the vegetables are tender but still hold their shape. This will usually take about 30-45 minutes.
  • Serve with crusty bread or mashed potatoes: A hearty dish like root vegetable ragout pairs well with crusty bread or mashed potatoes to soak up the flavorful sauce.

Conclusion:

Root vegetable ragoût is a delicious, hearty, and versatile dish that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With its colorful array of vegetables and rich, flavorful sauce, root vegetable ragoût is sure to become a favorite in your household.
