Yields: 4 servings | Prep Time: 15 minutes | Cook Time: 30 minutes
What You'll Need
- 3 cups assorted root vegetables (carrots, parsnips, sweet potato), peeled and chopped into 1-inch pieces
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- Salt and pepper
- For the Pistachio Dukkah:
- 1/4 cup shelled California pistachios
- 2 tbsp sesame seeds
- 1/2 tsp coriander seeds
- 1/4 tsp flaky sea salt
Putting It Together
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Toss the chopped root vegetables with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread on a baking sheet and roast for 30-35 minutes, or until tender and lightly caramelized.
- Make the Dukkah: While the vegetables roast, toast the pistachios, sesame seeds, cumin seeds, and coriander seeds in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 5 minutes until fragrant.
- Transfer the toasted nut and spice mixture to a mortar and pestle or a small food processor. Pulse lightly until coarsely chopped (do not turn into a paste). Stir in the sea salt.
- Once the vegetables are finished roasting, transfer them to a serving dish and sprinkle generously with the pistachio dukkah. Serve warm.
