Best Roasted Vegetables With Cashew Romesco Recipes

ROASTED VEGETABLES WITH CASHEW ROMESCO

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425 degrees. Place the broccoli and cauliflower on a sheet pan in an even layer. Drizzle with 1/4 cup oil, toss to coat and season lightly with salt and black pepper. Roast until the vegetables are crisp and lightly browned around the edges, 25 to 30 minutes.
• While the vegetables are roasting, in the bowl of a food processor, pulse the cashews and garlic until finely chopped. Add the roasted red peppers, smoked paprika, coriander, cumin, vinegar and 1/2 teaspoon salt, and pulse to incorporate. While the food processor is going, drizzle in the remaining ¼ cup of oil. Turn off, taste and add more salt and sherry vinegar to season if necessary. The sauce should be thick but spreadable and should easily drop off a spoon when lifted.
• Transfer the hot roasted broccoli and cauliflower to a serving platter. Spoon the cashew romesco on top. Serve immediately.

ROASTED ROOT VEGETABLES WITH ROMESCO SAUCE

Steps:

• 1. To make the romesco, preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Spread the almonds on a large, heavy-duty baking sheet and toast in the oven, stirring once or twice, until fragrant and slightly darkened, about 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and immediately pour onto a plate to cool; the nuts can burn easily. Leave the oven on.
• 2. On the baking sheet, toss the tomatoes, bell peppers, onion slices, and garlic cloves with the 2 Tbsp olive oil and 1 tsp salt. Roast until all the vegetables are tender and slightly charred, 15-30 minutes. As each vegetable is done, transfer it to a bowl. The onions and garlic will cook first, followed by the peppers and then the tomatoes.
• 3. When all the romesco vegetables are done, transfer them to a blender or food processor. Add the vinegar, paprika, and cayenne and process to a smooth purée. Taste and adjust the seasoning. Set the romesco aside.
• 4. Clean off the baking sheet, then add the root vegetables and toss with the 2 Tbsp olive oil and 1 tsp salt. Spread the vegetables in a single layer and roast until tender and nicely caramelized, about 40 minutes. Arrange the roasted root vegetables on a platter and pour the romesco sauce over them. Serve right away.

SHEET PAN ROASTED VEGETABLES

Steps:

• In a large bowl mix the zucchini, eggplant, carrots, tomatoes, onions and peppers with the oil, rosemary, thyme, bay leaves, oregano, garlic, lemon juice, lemon zest, salt and pepper. Cover and chill for at least 2 hours, and preferably overnight.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• On a large roasting pan, roast the vegetables, uncovered, for 20 minutes, or until the tomatoes have split and the edges of some of the vegetables are starting to crisp. Remove from the oven and stir before returning to the oven for another 20 minutes. At this time reduce heat to 200 degrees F (95 degrees C) and continue cooking until vegetables are tender, turning every 20 minutes.
