Not Potato! Night Recipes - Part One

And here they are! Playing the role of potato in these tasty recipes...

Roasted Kohlrabi or Turnip Slices
  1. Peel and thinly slice your vegetables with a mandoline.
  2. Lay out the slices in a single layer on a foil covered baking sheet.
  3. Brush or spray the slices with grapeseed oil and season with salt and/or your preferred spices. We used garlic powder, onion powder, salt and pepper for the turnip and Fire in the Kitchen's Veggie Blaze blend on the Kohlrabi.
  4. Bake in oven at 350 for 20 minutes or more, depending on how crisp you like them.

Roasted Radish Wedges
  1. Wash and quarter your radishes.
  2. Lay out the wedges in a single layer on a foil covered baking sheet.
  3. Toss the wedges with grapeseed oil and season with salt and/or your preferred spices. We used garlic powder, onion powder, salt and pepper.
  4. Bake in oven at 350 for 20 minutes or more.

Rutabega Fries
  1. Peel and cut the rutabega into sticks. They will shrink considerably, so keep that in mind for sizing.
  2. Lay out the sticks on a foil covered baking sheet, leaving a little room between.
  3. Brush or spray the slices with grapeseed oil and season with salt and/or your preferred spices. We used Fire in the Kitchen's One Rub blend.
  4. Bake in oven at 350 for 20 minutes or more, depending on how crisp you like them.
Mashed Celeriac or Rutabega
  1. Peel and chop your vegetable into cubes.
  2. Place cubes into a pot and fill with water so that the vegetables are just barely covered.
  3. Boil until the cubes are fork tender, then strain.
  4. Add 2 tsp of olive oil to give it a creamy taste and texture (other oils will not necessarily produce the desired result).
  5. Season to your liking with salt, pepper and/or other spices.

Mashed Cauliflower
  1. Rice your cauliflower by finely chopping it in a chopper, blender or food processor.
  2. Bring a pot of water to boil.
  3. Place the cauliflower in a strainer over the boiling water. Cover. Steam for 20 minutes.
  4. Place cooked cauliflower in a bowl and blend with a hand blender or mash. 
  5. Add 2 tsp olive oil and your favorite seasonings. Mix well.
