Contributed by (Recipe adapted from “Stephen Cooks” at www.stephencooks.com)
Ingredients
1 Rutabaga
Olive oil
fresh Rosemary, minced
Garlic, minced
Salt, hot sauce to taste
Instructions
Peel the rutabaga and cut it in 1/2 inch x 1'2 inch spears. Steam about 12 minutes in a steamer basket until just tender. Dry the spears with paper towels and then toss with a scant amount of olive oil, the garlic and the rosemary. Lay the rutabaga spears out in a single layer (ideally with none of the spears touching each other) on a jelly roll pan and bake in a preheated 400ºF oven about 25 minutes, turning once. Place them under the broiler for a few minutes, watching closely, to finish browning them. Salt to taste and serve immediately.
