Pan-Roasted Root Vegetables October, 2004 Serves 8 / A nice change from mashed potatoes, these crusty, caramelized vegetables are made on the stovetop to reserve precious oven space for the turkey.
1. Peel and cut vegetables into uniform 1/2-inch cubes. Rinse away any remaining debris under cold water. If making ahead, store in cold salted water. Before cooking, drain and spread vegetables on paper towels to dry well. 2. Transfer vegetables to a large bowl. Toss with olive oil, thyme, salt, and pepper. Heat a large, deep nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add vegetables and cook until tender and browned, about 20 minutes. Keep warm on stove or in a 200°F oven.
