Ingredients

• 4 whole carrots
• 3 whole parsnips
• 2 whole red onion
• 400 grams baby potatoes
• 4 whole garlic cloves
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 500 milliliters vegetable stock
• 4 sprigs fresh thyme
• 200 grams all-purpose flour
• 50 grams unsalted butter
• 50 grams grated Parmesan cheese
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 100 milliliters milk
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoons black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).

Step 2

Peel the carrots, parsnips, and red onions. Slice the carrots and parsnips into thick chunks and quarter the red onions. Leave the baby potatoes whole or halve them if they’re large. Place all vegetables, including the unpeeled garlic cloves, into a large roasting dish.

Step 3

Drizzle the vegetables with olive oil, season with salt and pepper, and scatter the sprigs of fresh thyme. Toss everything to coat evenly. Roast in the preheated oven for 25 minutes, stirring halfway through.

Step 4

While the vegetables roast, prepare the dumpling dough. In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and a pinch of salt. Add the cold butter and rub it into the flour until you have a breadcrumb-like texture.

Step 5

Stir in the grated Parmesan and chopped fresh parsley. Gradually add the milk, mixing until a soft dough forms. Avoid overworking the dough.

Step 6

Remove the roasted vegetables from the oven and pour the vegetable stock into the roasting dish. Stir gently to combine.

Step 7

Using your hands, divide the dumpling dough into 8 equal portions and roll them into balls. Place the dumplings on top of the vegetables and stock.

Step 8

Cover the roasting dish tightly with foil or a lid to trap steam, then return it to the oven. Reduce the temperature to 180°C (350°F) and bake for another 25 minutes.

Step 9

Remove the foil or lid and bake uncovered for an additional 5 minutes to give the dumplings a light golden color.

Step 10

Serve the pot-roast vegetables and dumplings hot, garnished with extra fresh parsley if desired.
