Roasted Potatoes and Shallots

These roasted potatoes and shallots offer a sophisticated twist on the traditional Sunday roast accompaniment. By slow-roasting the shallots until they are sweet and jammy before adding the potatoes, you create a wonderful depth of flavour and a beautiful contrast in textures. The Yukon Gold potatoes provide a buttery interior and a satisfyingly crisp skin, while the olive oil ensures a light, golden finish that keeps the dish entirely plant-based.

This vegan side dish is incredibly versatile, making it a reliable addition to a festive menu or a simple midweek dinner. The caramelised notes of the shallots complement savoury roasted meats and nut roasts alike. For the best results, ensure the vegetables are spread in a single layer to allow the heat to circulate, ensuring every potato edge achieves that coveted crunch.
