Maple Ginger Roasted Vegetables
Serves 4
1/2 lb. parsnips, peeled and cut into 2x1/2-inch sticks
1/2 lb. carrots (about 3 or 4), peeled and cut into 2x1/2-inch sticks
1/2 lb. turnips (about 2 medium or 1 large), peeled and cut into thin wedges
1/2 lb. Brussels sprouts, stems trimmed and any wilted leaves pulled off; large sprouts halved
2-inch piece fresh ginger, peeled and sliced into very thin matchsticks (about 1/3 cup)
3 Tbs. unsalted butter, melted
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tsp. grated fresh ginger
1-1/2 Tbs. pure maple syrup
Heat
the oven to 425ºF. Spread the vegetables and the ginger matchsticks in
a large, low-sided roasting pan or a heavy rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle
with the butter and season with salt and pepper.
Toss to evenly coat
the vegetables and spread them so that they're just one layer deep.
Roast the vegetables, tossing a couple of times, until tender and
golden brown in spots, about 30 minutes. Combine the grated ginger and
maple syrup. Drizzle the vegetables with the maple-ginger mixture,
toss, and roast for another 5 minutes. The vegetables should be very
tender and browned in spots. Serve warm.
