Ingredients
- 600 g Swede (rutabaga) peeled and chopped into cubes
- 2 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 tablespoon honey
- 2 pinch sea salt
- 1 pinch ground black pepper
- 6 g fresh Rosemary
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 190°C/170°C(fan)/375°F/Gas 5. Put all of the ingredients, apart from the rosemary, on a baking tray and mix well. Put in the oven for 15 minutes.
- Mix the swede well, so a different side is touching the baking tray and add the chopped rosemary and put it back in the oven for 15 minutes until cooked through.

Notes
- Make sure you peel the skin off well, as the skin can get really bitter when roasted. A sharp knife is essential for being able to cut the swede, without risking cutting your fingers off.
- Make sure that there is enough space on the roasting tray and that the swede is just in a single layer. If it is all piled up, then it will steam rather than roast and it won't get nice and crispy. You might need to use two baking trays.
- The smaller you cut the swede cubes, the quicker they will cook. So if you want quick cooking and crispy, you need to cut them up small.
- Make sure you don't overcook the swede, otherwise it will lose some of the nutritional value.
