Root vegetables can be a tasty and versatile food, if you know how to cook them. Luckily, there are lots of different ways you can do this.

Here are some delicious ways to cook your root vegetables.

Fry

Depending on your preference, chop your root vegetables up into fine slices or thicker chunks and fry them in olive oil. This can be as part of a stir fry, salad or side dish. Season with parprika or salt and lots of black pepper.

Bake

An easy way to prepare your root vegetables is simply to place them on a baking tray, season them, sprinkle with olive oil and bake them in the oven. This is good way to make vegetable chips or as quick snacks.

Roast

Season your vegetables, place them on a baking tray with a roast chicken or beef, and brush with olive oil. These can make a great addition to a roast dinner. They even soak up the juices of the meat and the seasoning for extra flavor.

Puree

Throw your vegetables into a blender and blitz until pureed. Add salt, pepper and flavors as you please. This can be a good smoothie or finishing touch to a dish.
