Potatoes And Carrots Family Style Recipes

JAMIE OLIVER'S ROAST POTATOES, PARSNIPS, AND CARROTS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400°.
• Peel the vegetables and halve any larger ones lengthways. Break the garlic bulb into cloves, leaving them unpeeled, and bash them slightly with the palm of your hand. Pick the rosemary leaves from the woody stalks.
• Put the potatoes and carrots into a large pan - you may need to use two - of salted, boiling water on a high heat and bring back to the boil.
• Allow to boil for 5 minutes, then add the parsnips and cook for another 4 minutes.
• Drain in a colander and allow to steam dry. Take out the carrots and parsnips and put to one side.
• Fluff up the potatoes in the colander by shaking it around a little - it's important to 'chuff them up' like this if you want them to have all those lovely crispy bits when they're cooked.
• Add the olive oil, garlic, and rosemary leaves.
• Put the vegetables into the tray with a good pinch of salt and pepper and stir them around to coat them in the flavours.
• Spread them out evenly into one layer - this is important, as you want them to roast, not steam as they will if you have them all on top of each other
• Cook for approximately 40 minutes or until the vegetables become browned and crispy.

BAKED FARMER SAUSAGE, POTATOES, AND CARROTS WITH GRAVY

Steps:

• If desired, peel frozen farmer sausage. (The best way is to hold it under a trickle of warm water.) Break sausage into 4-6 chunks.
• Place potatoes and carrots into a roaster or large casserole dish. Add water to cover the bottom of the dish.
• Place frozen sausage chunks over top (so drippings will flavour the vegetables), cover, and bake at 375F for 1-1/2 hours.
• Remove from oven and drain juices from casserole dish into a saucepan. (You may want to put the sausage and vegetables in a serving dish now and keep warm in the oven.).
• For gravy: Mix flour and milk together, adding milk gradually so a paste forms and slowly gets thicker -- you don't want lumps! (Actually, a Tupperware gravy shaker works best for this. You can just throw it all together and shake it up without worrying about lumps at all.).
• Add milk mixture to drippings and bring to a boil, stirring constantly, until gravy is thickened. (Depending on how much water content your sausage had, you may need to add a little more flour or milk to achieve the desired thickness.).
• Add salt and pepper to taste and serve.
