Time 1h5m

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 russet potatoes (2 pounds total), scrubbed, quartered lengthwise, and cut crosswise into 1 1/2-inch pieces
1 large celery root (1 1/2 pounds), peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces
1 bunch carrots (7 medium), peeled and cut on the bias into 3-inch pieces
3 large leeks (2 pounds total), white and pale-green parts cut crosswise into 1 1/2-inch rounds, washed well, and drained
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
2 tablespoons white-wine vinegar
1/3 cup lightly packed fresh mint leaves and small sprigs, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees with racks in upper and lower thirds. On a rimmed baking sheet, toss vegetables with oil. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer half of vegetables to another rimmed baking sheet. Spread vegetables in a single layer.
  • Roast, rotating baking sheets from top to bottom and front to back halfway through, until vegetables are tender and golden brown in spots, 50 to 60 minutes. Transfer to a platter and toss with vinegar. Sprinkle with mint and serve.
