OVEN ROASTED SUNCHOKES (JERUSALEM ARTICHOKES) RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 F.
• Chop sunchokes into 1-inch chunks. Toss on a baking sheet or roasting pan together with olive oil and soy sauce , coating well.
• Roast sunchokes in the oven for 35 to 45 minutes, or until soft and lightly golden brown.
• Season with a bit of extra salt and pepper, if desired.

ROASTED PARSNIPS AND CARROTS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• If the parsnips and carrots are very thick, cut them in half lengthwise. Slice each diagonally in 1-inch-thick slices. The vegetables will shrink while cooking, so don't make the pieces too small. Place the cut vegetables on a sheet pan. Add the olive oil, salt, and pepper and toss well. Roast for 20 to 40 minutes, depending on the size of the vegetables, tossing occasionally, until the parsnips and carrots are just tender. Sprinkle with dill and serve hot.

ROASTED SUNCHOKE WITH CREAMY GOAT CHEESE

Steps:

• Spread the sunchokes out evenly on a baking sheet. Season generously with salt and pepper and drizzle with 1/4 cup olive oil. Mix them around with your hands so everything gets evenly coated.
• Slice off the top part of the head of garlic to expose a small amount of the cloves. Place the head, root-side down, in a piece of aluminum foil. Season the top cut part with salt and pepper and drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Wrap the garlic in the foil, creating a package, and place it on the baking sheet with the sunchokes. Roast until the sunchokes are brown and slightly tender, 45 to 50 minutes.
• While the sunchokes are still hot, smash them with a potato masher or fork. They should be smashed but not completely mashed up.
• In a large bowl, combine the goat cheese, chives, a generous pinch of salt and pepper and the remaining 2 tablespoon olive oil. Add the smashed sunchokes. Take the garlic out of the foil. Squeeze the bulb so that the roasted cloves come out of the skins and fall into the bowl with the goat cheese and sunchokes. Stir it all up until the ingredients are blended and the sunchokes well coated. Serve immediately.
