Spicy Roasted Vegetable Cubes

Styling and Photography by Sina Mizrahi

I once bought one of those cubed vegetable soup prep kits and made this side dish. If (like me) you don’t live near any huge supermarket that makes these chopped vegetable kits, it only takes a few minutes to actually do it by hand, so put on the music and start cubing! It’s worth the trouble.

SERVES 8–10

• 2 carrots, peeled and diced
• 2 small sweet potatoes, peeled and diced
• 2 zucchini, cubed
• 3 parsnips, peeled and diced
• 1 cup frozen peas (optional)
• 2–3 Tbsp vegetable oil
• 2 tsp Montreal steak spice or similar
• salt and pepper, to taste
• ½ kielbasa sausage or any spicy sausage, diced

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).

Mix all ingredients in a large bowl. Spread on a baking sheet and roast for about 18 minutes, or until edges start to brown. I like to stir it once during cooking time. Serve warm.
