Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 tablespoons ground turmeric
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil (extra virgin preferred)
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
  • 1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 medium carrots, peeled and cut into sticks
  • 1 large sweet potato, peeled and cubed
  • 1 red bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 small head of cauliflower, broken into florets
  • 1 cup Brussels sprouts, halved
  • Optional garnish: fresh chopped cilantro or parsley
  • Optional garnish: toasted pumpkin seeds or slivered almonds
  • Optional garnish: lemon wedges for serving

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together ground turmeric, olive oil, minced garlic, ground cumin, smoked paprika (if using), lemon juice, honey, salt, and pepper until smooth and fragrant.
  3. Peel and chop carrots and sweet potatoes into about 1-inch sticks and cubes. Slice the bell pepper into strips, cut cauliflower into bite-sized florets, and halve the Brussels sprouts.
  4. Transfer all chopped vegetables into a large mixing bowl. Pour the turmeric marinade over them and toss thoroughly to coat every piece.
  5. Spread the coated vegetables out in a single layer on a baking sheet.
  6. Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, stirring and flipping the veggies halfway through (around 15 minutes) for even cooking.
  7. Check for doneness by poking a piece of sweet potato or carrot with a fork; it should slide in easily but still hold shape. Roast an additional 5 minutes if needed.
  8. Remove from oven and let cool for a couple of minutes.
  9. Sprinkle fresh cilantro or parsley and toasted pumpkin seeds on top if desired.
  10. Serve with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice.

Notes

Do not overcrowd the pan to avoid steaming the vegetables. Pat vegetables dry before roasting for better caramelization. Toss veggies halfway through roasting for even cooking. If veggies brown too quickly, lower oven temperature to 400°F and extend roasting time. Marinate veggies for 10-15 minutes before roasting for richer flavor. Fresh turmeric can be used as a substitute (1 tablespoon fresh grated for 2 tablespoons ground). For vegan option, replace honey with maple syrup or agave nectar. Experiment with spice levels by adding cayenne or chili flakes.
