STEAMED ROOT VEGETABLES WITH DILL BUTTER



Steamed Root Vegetables With Dill Butter image

A great recipe I like to use in winter when I receive my monthly shares from the local organic farm. There are usually a lot of roots included. OK the brussel sprouts don't count as roots, but the rest are. If I just have large potatoes, I cut in eights instead of quarters. If I just have regular large onions, I cut them in eighths, but the chunks do tend to separate with cooking. Times will vary slightly for different types of vegetable. During preparation, I just scrub off the skins of the carrots with a vegetable brush rather than peel them, which saves time and is less messy I think. I give the time for if you steam them one after another, but of course you can cut down on cooking time continually by steaming different types simultaneously in separate saucepans (or steam some together if you have a large enough pan). I omit the salt, but you don't have to. This goes great with roast beef.

Steps:

Cut the outermost cabbage leaf free at the core remove the leaf gently in one piece, being careful not to tear it, and remove 3 more leaves in the same manner. Arrange a leaf on each of 4 plates. Cut enough of the remaining cabbage into 1/8-inch-thick shreds to measure 2 cups packed loosely, reserving the rest for another use. In a steamer set over boiling water arrange in order the carrots, the turnips, the parsnips, and the shredded cabbage, steam the vegetables, covered, for 8 to 10 minutes, or until they are just tender, and in a heated bowl toss them with the butter, the vinegar, the minced dill, and salt and pepper to taste. Mound the vegetable mixture in the cabbage leaves and garnish it with the dill sprigs.
