Serves 2
Slow roasting is a wonderful way to bring out the natural sweetness of vegetables. This is a great one-pan dish.
INGREDIENTS
- 6 small carrots, scrubbed
- 1 sweet potato, peeled and sliced
- 1 bunch baby turnips, scrubbed and trimmed
- 2 tablespoons olive oil (or coconut oil or ghee)
- 1 red capsicum, core and seeds removed, quartered
- 200 g lamb tenderloin
- Fresh thyme
METHOD
- Preheat oven to 160C (fan).
- Toss carrot, sweet potato and baby turnips in oil. Place in baking pan and roast for 20 minutes. Add capsicum and roast for a further 40 minutes or until vegetables are almost tender.
- Increase temperature to 170C (fan). Add lamb and thyme to baking tray, coating in residual oil in pan, and cook for a further 15-20 minutes or until vegetables are tender and lamb is cooked (to medium).
- For baby’s serve, place some of the cooked vegetables and lamb in a food processor or high-powered blender with water (or baby’s milk) – use enough liquid to achieve desired consistency – and blend to appropriate smoothness for your baby’s development.
