Spring Root Vegetable Hash
Recipe created by: Eating by Elaine
Serves: 8-10
Ingredients
For the hash:
- 6 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 2 shallots, peeled and diced
- 1 large garlic clove, minced
- 1 tsp fine salt
- 1/2 tsp ground black pepper
- 1.5 pounds baby Dutch yellow potatoes or Fingerling potatoes, diced into small bite-sized pieces
- 4 large rainbow or regular carrots, peeled and diced
- 1 turnip, peeled and diced
- 10-12 ounces radishes (I used Easter egg radishes), diced
- 1/4 cup hemp seeds (optional)
For the creamy herb sauce:
- ½ cup extra virgin olive oil
- ¼ cup runny tahini
- 1 cup fresh dill, large stems removed (save some for garnish)
- 1 cup fresh Italian flat leaf parsley, large stems removed (save some for garnish)
- 1 tbsp Maille Traditional Dijon Originale Mustard
- 1 tbsp maple syrup
- ½ tsp salt
- 1/4 cup filtered water
Preparation
For the hash:
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit and prep your veggies.
- Heat the oil in a 2-quart cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is hot add the shallots, garlic, salt and pepper and sauté for 2-3 minutes until the shallots are translucent.
- Add the potatoes, carrots, turnip and radishes and sauté over medium heat for 20 minutes until the potatoes start to soften.
- Add hemp seeds if using. Stir frequently throughout the cooking process and ensure the veggies get evenly coated with the oil.
- Transfer the skillet to the oven and roast at 425 degrees Fahrenheit uncovered for 30 minutes.
- Broil at 500 degrees Fahrenheit for the last 2-3 minutes for a golden brown crispy sear.
For the creamy herb sauce:
- While the hash cooks in the oven, prepare your sauce.
- Add all the sauce ingredients to a mini food processor (or blender) and puree until smooth and creamy. Set aside.
- If making the sauce ahead of time, thin out with 1-2 tablespoons filtered water just before using as the sauce thickens as it sits overtime.
For serving:
- Garnish the skillet with chopped dill and parsley leaves.
- Serve the hash hot out of the skillet or transfer to a serving dish.
- Drizzle with the creamy herb sauce or serve on the side and allow your guests to drizzle their own portions.
