Herbes de Provence Roasted Vegetables
VegetarianVegan
Herbes de Provence, with its lavender, thyme, and rosemary notes, is built for roasting, but thirty minutes at 425°F is long enough to cook off some of what makes it special. This recipe splits the oil: most goes in for roasting, and a reserved tablespoon goes on raw at the end so the aromatics actually make it to the table.
Ingredients
- 1 lb carrots, cut into 2-inch pieces
- 1 lb baby potatoes, halved
- 1 red bell pepper, cut into chunks
- 1 red onion, cut into wedges
- 3 tablespoons Fezziwig's Herbes de Provence Olive Oil, for roasting
- 1 tablespoon Fezziwig's Herbes de Provence Olive Oil, reserved for finishing
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F (218°C).
- Combine the carrots, potatoes, bell pepper, and onion on a large baking sheet.
- Drizzle with the 3 tablespoons of Herbes de Provence Olive Oil meant for roasting and toss until evenly coated.
- Season with salt and pepper, then spread the vegetables into a single layer.
- Roast for 25 to 30 minutes, stirring once halfway through, until the vegetables are tender and caramelized at the edges.
- Remove from the oven and drizzle immediately with the reserved tablespoon of Herbes de Provence Olive Oil while the vegetables are still hot, so the raw oil's aroma comes through before serving.
Frequently Asked Questions
What vegetables work best with Herbes de Provence Olive Oil?
Root vegetables like carrots and potatoes hold up well to the 25 to 30 minute roasting time and take on the lavender, thyme, and rosemary notes especially well. Zucchini, asparagus, or green beans also work but need less roasting time, closer to 15 minutes.
Why does this recipe add the oil twice instead of all at once?
High heat cooks off some of the delicate herb aromatics that make Herbes de Provence Olive Oil worth the price. Reserving a tablespoon to drizzle on raw, right after roasting, means the finished dish still tastes distinctly like the oil, not just like roasted vegetables.
Is this recipe vegan?
Yes, as written it contains no animal products at all, which makes it a reliable side dish for a mixed table with different dietary needs.
