Extreme Vegetable Goodness
Ready In: 2 hrs 45 mins
Serves: 8
Ingredients
- 3 cups butternut squash, cubed (1 small)
- 3 cups sweet potatoes, cubed (1 very large)
- 3 cups baby plum tomatoes or 3 cups cherry tomatoes
- 5 variously-coloured sweet peppers, cubed
- 3 Japanese eggplants, cubed
- 1 fennel bulb and greens, quartered and sliced
- 1 very large red onion, large dice
- 1⁄2 cup extra virgin olive oil
- salt, pepper
- 1 tablespoon dried oregano
- 3⁄4 lb grated pecorino cheese
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F.
- Toss all the vegetables in a very large pan. Drizzle with the evoo, and add salt and pepper to taste, and oregano. With very clean hands, give everything a toss to distribute and bake for 1 1/2 hours. Sprinkle with grated pecorino and bake a further 20 minutes - your vegetables with be very soft and tender, not crisp at all. This is a 'comfort' recipe, so if you must have crisp vegetables, best do them another way. ;-)
- Serve warm, or close to room temperature. The extreme veggie goodness has better-developed flavours that way. Spoon the juices in the pan over each serving - they are divine.
