Roasted Rutabagas With Maple Syrup And Chile Recipes

ROASTED RUTABAGA

ROASTED RUTABAGA

Steps:

• Place a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Place rutabaga in a large resealable plastic bag and drizzle olive oil over it. Seal the bag tightly and shake until rutabaga is nicely covered with oil. Open the bag and add salt, sugar, basil, and oregano. Seal the bag again and shake gently until spices are evenly distributed. Transfer rutabaga to a nonstick baking sheet.
• Roast in the preheated oven until tender and golden, stirring halfway through, about 40 minutes.

ROASTED RUTABAGAS WITH MAPLE SYRUP AND CHILE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

FARRO SALAD WITH ROASTED RUTABAGA, RICOTTA SALATA AND HAZELNUTS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Toss rutabaga with 2 tablespoons oil, the maple syrup, 1/2 teaspoon salt and black pepper to taste. Spread out on a baking sheet and roast, stirring once or twice, until rutabaga is very tender and browned, 30 to 40 minutes.
• Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and add farro. Cook until tender, checking often. This can take from 20 minutes to an hour, depending upon type of farro used. Add more water if necessary.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the shallot, vinegar, garlic and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Whisk in 3 tablespoons olive oil and some pepper.
• Drain farro well and add to bowl along with rutabaga, tossing everything well. Let cool slightly (it can still be warm but not hot), then mix in the cheese and hazelnuts. Taste and add more salt, pepper and olive oil if necessary.
• In another bowl, drizzle watercress or arugula with a little oil and vinegar and toss well. Serve farro on a bed of watercress.

MAPLE GLAZED RUTABAGA

• Bake at 425° for 35 minutes or until rutabaga is tender, stirring occasionally.

MAPLE-ROASTED BRUSSELS SPROUTS AND RUTABAGA WITH HAZELNUTS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Whisk together maple syrup, oil, lemon juice, and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a large bowl. Add rutabaga, and toss.
• Transfer rutabaga and all but 2 tablespoons glaze to a rimmed baking sheet (leave remaining glaze in bowl). Spread rutabaga in a single layer, sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon salt, and roast for 35 minutes, tossing halfway through and making sure rutabaga is spread toward the edges of pan.
• Raise oven temperature to 450 degrees. Toss brussels sprouts with remaining glaze in bowl and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Remove sheet from oven, and add sprouts. Toss, and spread in a single layer. Roast vegetables, tossing every 5 minutes, until glaze is very thick and vegetables are deep golden brown, about 20 minutes. Season with pepper and sprinkle with hazelnuts.

ROASTED ROOT VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425°F.
• Combine all the vegetables in a large mixing bowl.
• Drizzle in the oil and maple syrup, then sprinkle in the cinnamon and nutmeg. Stir together.
• Transfer the mixture to a lightly oiled large roasting pan (lined with parchment if you like). Bake for 30 minutes, more or less, stirring every 10 minutes or so. The vegetables should be tender on the inside and touched with golden brown on the outside.
• Toward the end of the cooking time, sprinkle on some fresh rosemary leaves, if desired. Season with salt and pepper; then transfer to a covered serving container. Serve immediately or keep warm until mealtime.
• Variations:
• Though they break the root veggie theme, brussels sprouts and/or thinly sliced red onions are terrific additions, lending a nice contrasting flavor and color.
• Stir in ribbons of collards or lacinato kale about 10 minutes before the vegetables are done.
• Experiment with other root veggies, including ordinary white or yellow potatoes, Jerusalem artichokes, Chioggia beets, rutabagas, and daiko.
