How to Make Baked Potatoes Leeks And Carrots
- Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
- Lightly brush a large oven-safe dish with olive oil. In a food processor, roughly chop 1 kg potatoes (about 3 medium), 2 large leeks (white and light green parts only, thinly sliced), and 2 large carrots (peeled and chopped).
- Transfer the chopped vegetables to the prepared dish. Add 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley (or basil), 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Toss gently to combine.
- Spread the vegetables evenly in the dish. Cover tightly with aluminum foil.
- Bake for 60 minutes, or until the vegetables are easily pierced with a fork.
- Remove the foil. Sprinkle generously with 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese (or your favorite cheese).
- Return to the oven for 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Serve immediately, straight from the oven, for a warm and comforting side dish.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
