Cooking Tips
To turn carrots, parsnips, Brussels sprouts, and potatoes into perfect side dishes for a roast dinner, follow these cooking tips:
Preparation:
Wash and peel the carrots and parsnips, then cut them into evenly sized pieces. If the parsnips have a woody core, remove it.
Clean the Brussels sprouts, trim the stem ends, and cut them in half.
Peel and cut the potatoes into chunks or wedges.
Roasting Temperature:
Preheat your oven to a high temperature, around 400-425°F (200-220°C), for crispy and golden results.
Seasoning:
Toss the vegetables in a mixing bowl with olive oil, salt, pepper, and your choice of seasonings. Common options include minced garlic, fresh herbs (rosemary, thyme), or a sprinkle of paprika or Parmesan cheese.
Spacing:
Arrange the vegetables in a single layer on a baking sheet, ensuring they have some space between them. Overcrowding can cause them to steam rather than roast.
Roasting Times:
Carrots and parsnips typically take around 30-40 minutes to roast until they are tender and caramelized. Turn them once during cooking for even browning.
Brussels sprouts will take about 20-30 minutes. They should be tender and slightly crispy on the outside.
Potatoes may take longer, approximately 40-50 minutes. You can parboil them for about 5-7 minutes before roasting to speed up the process.
Basting:
You can baste the vegetables with some melted butter or more olive oil halfway through the roasting process for extra flavor and moisture.
Check for Doneness:
Test the vegetables with a fork to ensure they're tender. They should be golden and slightly crispy on the outside.
Serve Hot:
Serve the roasted vegetables immediately while they're hot and at their crispiest.
By following these tips, you can create a delightful array of perfectly roasted side dishes that complement your roast dinner. Adjust the seasoning and cooking times according to your preferences and the specific flavours you desire.

Provenance
We’ve always had certain things we like done a certain way. And most of these have to do with making fresh food from the finest ingredients. Like our flour. We get it straight from the mill for our pies and pastries. And our meats, freshly supplied by reputable farmers with a keen sense of quality. Even our seasonal fruit and veg comes straight from local farms, and then goes right into our customers’ baskets and ready meals.
