Roasted Root Vegetables and Brussels Sprouts

September 25, 2013 By Lokness 16 Comments

Roasted Root Vegetables and Brussels Sprouts

Fall is here! I can feel the cool air. Woo hoo! That is really exciting! I love Fall! Until a few days ago, I didn’t think about why I love Fall. After some throughout thinking, I have finally figured it out. When the weather starts to get cold and the wind is blowing outside, it is nice to stay at home. Turn on the heater, drink a cup of hot chocolate, and cuddle up with the loved ones. It is cozy, warm and sweet! That home sweet home feeling is what I love.

To welcome the arrival of Fall, I have this roasted vegetables recipe for you. It is made with some seasonal vegetables, like brussels sprouts and sweet potatoes. It is very easy, but flavorful with all the dried herbs. I also love the color of the dish. There are green, brown, orange, and white. Just amazing to look at. This is definitely a side dish I would make a lot at this Fall. Hope you will like it too!

Roasted Root Vegetables and Brussels Sprouts

Roasted Root Vegetables and Brussels Sprouts (Adapted from Giada De Laurentiis via Foodnetwork.com)

2 servings

Ingredients:

–   3 medium carrots (peeled, washed and cut into 1½-inch dices)

–   2 medium red potatoes (washed and cut into 1½-inch dices)

–   ¼ pound Brussels Sprouts (washed and halved)

–   1 medium parsnip (peeled, washed and cut into 1½-inch dices)

–   1 medium sweet potato (washed and cut into 1½-inch diced)

–   3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

–   ¼ heaping teaspoon dried oregano

–   ¼ heaping teaspoon dried rosemary

–   ¼ teaspoon dried thyme

–   ¼ teaspoon dried basil

–   sea salt

–   ground black pepper

Directions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 400˚F.
  2. In a rimmed baking sheet, toss the vegetables with olive oil. Sprinkle all the dried herbs over the vegetables. Toss to combine. Season with salt and pepper. Toss again. If needed, add more olive oil. Spread the vegetables in a single layer. Bake in the oven for 38 – 42 minutes or until the potatoes are cooked and tender. Transfer to a serving plate. Serve immediately.

Tips:

  1. You can substitute any root vegetables with other root vegetables, like butternut squash and yam.
  2. I didn’t try parsnip until this recipe. It has a mild taste with little sweetness. I loved it!
  3. Fresh herbs can be burned easily, so it is better to use dried ones.

    I have a passion for Brussels sprouts. We don’t see them here until nearly Christmas though (it’s still 35°C here at the moment). I can’t wait! Your roasted vegetables look delicious!

      I didn’t try brussels sprouts until a few months ago. Before that, I heard many people saying that they don’t like brussels sprouts. So I hesitated to try. After I tried it, I love it! It is just like cabbage, but with a stronger flavor. And they are so adorable! Hope you can get your hands in brussels sprouts soon! 🙂

    I love roasted vegetables, and especially all kinds of root veggies… I wish my family eats brussel sprouts like I do then we’d be eating more frequently! Very lovely fall dish!

      Yes, root vegetables are mostly sweet and some creamy. They are so good when roasted. If you made this dish, your can steal all the brussels sprouts to yourself, and leave your family everything else. 😀

This Vancouver trip, we spent most of our time in This Vancouver trip, we spent most of our time in Richmond, British Colombia. It’s the city where the airport is located & right next to Vancouver. There is a huge Chinese community, so there’re many traditional Chinese food. One of the most memorable for me has to be this char siu & roasted duck w/ rice. Char siu had the perfect balance of meat & fat. I also got the soup of the day. It was very comforting & I finished the whole bowl. The atmosphere, the people & the food reminded me of Hong Kong. I’ll definitely come back next time! 

Tips: Many restaurants & food stalls in Richmond only take cash.
