How to Make Easy Roasted Coconut Curry Vegetables:
1. Preheat your oven to 400 F / 204 C . Then, line a baking sheet with parchment paper, if you have some. If not, a parchment-free baking sheet is fine! That paper just helps with clean up.
2. Place all chopped veggies into a mixing bowl. Set aside.
3. In a small bowl, mix together the melted coconut oil, ginger, curry powder and salt.
Side Note – in past posts and YouTube videos I have mentioned that coconut oil is something I only use on rare occasions due to it’s saturated fat content. Well, this would be one of those rare occasions! That coconut flavor is really important in the recipe. Another one of my recipes where coconut oil is used is in the crust for my Vegan Cherry Blueberry Pie. YUM! That coconut flavor really adds to that pie crust in a magical way. Anyway, back to the curry!
4. Pour the oil/curry mixture over the bowl of veggies and mix it all together very well.
5. Transfer the veggies onto your baking sheet and spread them out into a single layer.
6. Then, place them in the oven to roast for 20 – 25 minutes or until the veggies are tender and the tips of the vegetables (the broccoli, in particular) are browned.
So easy and sooo tasty.
Enjoy!!
