Yum yum - sounds like another great variation.
Last night I tried wedges / fingers of potatoes, parsnip, carrot and swede, tossed in an equal mix of olive oil and runny honey, all roasted in the oven, served with sour cream dip. OH liked it too (bit like healthy chips I guess).
Tonight (veg box delivery day today, so even more root veg ) I thought I'd try slicing them thinly and doing a root veg version of what you do with potato.... oh, what's the name? covered in milk or stock and baked in the oven until cooked and brown on top...? Mojo - you should know the name - something french isn't it?
Mmmm.... whatever.... comfort food....  |

Ah, the 2nd one - dauphinoise (sp?) that's the kinda thing I was thinkin about.
Or boulangerie (sp?)...
I think one is with milk and/or cream, the other with stock and onions?
Okay - google and Sainsburys to the rescue:
boulangere is with stock and dauphinoise is with cream or milk!
Still think its worth trying with a mix of root veg, inspired by everyone else's ideas.... but given its getting a bit late, I'll have to leave it until another day now. Maybe I'll do a small dish of both and and have a taste test over the weekend and let you know
(and I think au gratin means a breadcrumb or cheesey topping?)
Now what's quick for tea?
EGGS!!  |
