Eating

11 January 2013

I haven't posted a recipe on here for ages so I thought it was time, with it being the start of a new year, to start sharing them again.  We eat as seasonally as possible here, so we are currently eating lots of root vegetables.  I am always on the look out for new recipes.  I am not sure where this one came from, probably an amalgamation of several recipes.

Root Vegetable and Blue Cheese Bake

1lb Carrots
1lb Parsnips
1lb Potatoes
Knob of Butter
5 Spring Onions
Approx 100g Blue Cheese (I usually use Stilton)

Preheat the oven to 180°C.
Peel and roughly chop the vegetables.  Boil in water until tender, drain and put in a bowl.
Chop the salad onions.
Melt butter in the same pan and gently fry the salad onions for a minute or so until soft, add the vegetables and stir to coat with butter and mix in the salad onion.
Chop the Stilton into small pieces
Put the vegetables in a large, buttered dish and scatter the cheese on top.
Put in the oven and cook for about 20 minutes until the cheese has melted.

I usually serve this with green beans (if I have any frozen ones from the garden), cabbage cooked or made into a salad.
