How to Make Apple Glazed Root Vegetables
- Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a large sauté pan over medium heat. Add 1 medium onion, thinly sliced, and sauté for 1-2 minutes, until softened.
- Add 1 pound carrots, peeled and chopped into 1-inch pieces, and 1/2 cup apple juice. Bring to a boil.
- Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer for 10-12 minutes, or until the carrots are almost tender.
- Add 1 tablespoon butter, 1 pound celery root, peeled and chopped into 1-inch pieces, and 1/4 cup apple juice (add up to 1/2 cup more if needed to prevent sticking).
- Stir to coat the vegetables evenly. Cover and simmer for 5-7 minutes, or until the celery root is tender but still holds its shape.
- Season generously with salt and freshly ground white pepper to taste. Serve warm and enjoy!
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
