The idea comes from the much loved flavour of honey & mustard, yet obviously excluding the honey.
They make a great side dish with roasts, or BBQ's, or simply to add veggies to your regular meals.
Agave Mustard Baked Veggies
One large of each of these:
Zucchini
Carrot
Eggplant
Chop all the veggies into desired size.
Place them in a veggie bag along with 2 teaspoons dijon mustard & 2 teaspoons agave nectar. Toss until all veggies are lightly coated. (I save the bags that I buy our produce in to use for occasions such as this.)
Pour into a big roasting dish.
Pour veggie stock over the veggies until 1cm deep in the dish.
Sprinkle with 2 teaspoons dried thyme leaves.
Cover with foil.
Bake at 200C for 45-50 minutes til softened. (Time will vary depending on size of chopped veggies).
Do you enjoy the flavour of sweet & sour together?
Hmm, I haven't tried agave yet in roasting or baking. Sounds like something tasty. I've just used maple sweetener in those cases. Close but not exactly the same.
ReplyDeleteMaple would definitely work here too! :-)
