I always make my roasties this way but to allow them to still go crispy I would recommend making up the olive oil/ rosemary/ balsamic mixture in a pestle and mortar just after you've put the veggies in to roast then adding it to them after they've been in the oven for 15-30 minutes. This way I get the crispiness I love as well as the flavours :)

We loved this. I had some of those mini sweet bell peppers in the fridge which were added. I'm slow to the band wagon but this was my first time cooking with shallots! I guess I always figured that an onion was an onion! Boy was I wrong! The oven temperature amd time was spot on. Guess I'll be planting shallots this season. Thanks.

I had bought some lovely shallots and decided to try this recipe to use them. Serendipity!!! This recipe is outstanding! I did use the balsamic vinegar, and it lent a nice richness to the vegetables. They browned up beautifully. I had to use dried rosemary since I didn't have any fresh, and it tasted just fine. DH and I haven't been this excited about potatoes for a long time! Thanks, -Sylvie-!

Hi, I'm 31 and cooking and living in England. I was born in Germany and that's where I grew up and lived until I came to the UK to go to University in 1998.
I never went back to live in Germany, even though all my family is still there.
