Sweet Gingered Winter Vegetables
"Vegetables are roasted, dressed with a sweet ginger sauce, and then returned to the oven to let it caramelize. This would be ideal as a side dish or as a vegetarian main dish when served over Yorkshire puddings (just be sure to not use animal fat!). Serves 2 as a main course and 4 as a side dish."
