About the recipe
This is my favourite way to cook my Christmas veg. Keeping the skins on gives incredible flavour, and tailoring flavourings to the veg means you’ve got a proper streamlined taste profile. They’re just really good veg!
Ingredients
1kg carrots
1 tablespoon runny honey
olive oil
2 clementines
½ a bunch of fresh thyme (15g)
1kg parsnips
red wine vinegar
1 handful of bay leaves
Method
- Preheat the oven to 180°C/350°F/gas 4. Scrub the carrots and line them up in a large roasting tray. Drizzle with the honey, 1 tablespoon of olive oil, and sprinkle over a pinch of sea salt. Squeeze over the juice of the clementines and scatter over the thyme sprigs.
- Scrub and trim the parsnips. Line them up in the tray next to the carrots and drizzle with 1 tablespoon of red wine vinegar and 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Sprinkle with a pinch of sea salt and tuck in the bay leaves.
- Gently toss the veg in their own sections, and roast for 1 hour and 20 minutes, or until golden and gorgeous.
