Root vegetables are the unsung heroes of the kitchen waiting to transform your meals. They're not just about the earthy goodness beneath their skins, they're a treasure trove of flavours and textures. From the peppery bite of turnip to the crisp notes of onion, these subterranean delights are a cornerstone of hearty home cooking.
We have lots of root vegetables to stock up on. Try turnips or swede for a seasonal side to meals. Our beetroots are nice and sweet. Blend them into your favourite houmous for an added depth of flavour or try our beet ketchup recipe for a spin on the classic.
How to cook root vegetables
There's nothing quite like roasted root veggies. Toss them in a casserole pan with a drizzle of oil and let them caramelise to perfection. The edges crisp up and the insides become tender, filling the whole kitchen with an aromatic scent.
Roasted carrots and starchy parsnips pair well with steak and pies. For a more filling side dish, try our celeriac and potato mash. It’s creamy, it’s dreamy and it’s got that buttery richness that’ll make your taste buds dance.
Fresh vegetables are the backbone of classic stew recipes, a flavour-packed dish boasting of zingy spices, veggies and meat. If carb alternatives are your preferred choice, we have tons of plant-based options like courgetti for your pasta, sweet potato fries and butternut squash chips.
