Frequently Asked Questions
Can I add other vegetables?
Absolutely! Bell peppers, sweet potatoes, broccoli, or Brussels sprouts all work well with the same cooking time.
How do I get crispy edges?
Make sure vegetables are spread in a single layer (don't overcrowd) and don't stir too early—let them caramelize.
Can I prep these veggies ahead of time?
You can chop potatoes and carrots up to 24 hours in advance and store them in cold water in the fridge. Cut the zucchini right before roasting, since it releases moisture quickly and can get mushy if it sits too long.
Why are my roasted potatoes not crispy?
The most common culprits are a cold oven and wet potatoes. Always preheat fully to 220°C/425°F before the pan goes in, and pat potatoes dry after washing. A light dusting of cornstarch before tossing with oil also creates an extra-crispy shell.
What protein pairs well with these roasted vegetables?
Grilled chicken thighs, pan-seared salmon, or roasted pork tenderloin all complement the garlic-herb flavors. For a vegetarian option, serve alongside baked falafel or a generous scoop of hummus.
