Ingredients
- 4 medium Turnips
- 3 tablespoons Olive Oil
- 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion Powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black Pepper
- 1 tablespoon Fresh Rosemary
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Step 2
Peel the turnips and cut them into chunks approximately 1 to 1.5 inches in size, mimicking the size and shape of traditional roast potatoes.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Whisk together until well blended.
Step 4
Add the turnip chunks to the bowl and toss them well until each piece is evenly coated with the spice mixture.
Step 5
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Spread the seasoned turnips out in a single layer on the baking sheet, ensuring they are not overcrowded.
Step 6
Roast the turnips in the preheated oven for 25 minutes, then remove them and turn each piece over to ensure even crisping.
Step 7
Return the turnips to the oven and continue roasting for an additional 20 minutes or until golden brown and crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.
Step 8
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and sprinkle the roasted turnips with finely chopped fresh rosemary for a burst of flavor.
Step 9
Serve hot as a delicious and low-carb alternative to traditional roast potatoes.
