This way of making veggies is super easy and tasty. You just roast them and they get crispy/tender and flavorful.
I originally got a recipe for blasted broccoli here. Then I realized you can also do this with carrots, squash, zucchini... basically any veggie that is kind of tough.
I like doing this to brussel sprouts too, but I blanch (boil for 2 minutes) the brussel sprouts beforehand to take the bitterness out.
Ingredients- vegetable of choice
- olive oil
- salt
- chili flakes (optional).
Directions
- Set your oven to 500 degrees or broil.
- Wash and cut up your veggie of choice into bite-size pieces.
- Pat dry. If you use watery veggies, they wont get crispy in the oven.
- Toss the dry veggies in olive oil and some salt. Optional: Add chili flakes for spice!
- Arrange the veggies on a baking sheet. Make sure each piece has room. Crowding them together means less crispy edges..
- Stick it in the oven on the top rack for 8-10 minutes or so until they are browned. They should smell almost burnt and yummy.
