Roasted Rutabaga with Brown Butter

Roasted Rutabaga with Brown Butter

  • 1 large rutabaga, about 1 1/2 pounds
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • Flaky salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • Juice of 1/2 lemon
  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped parsley

 

Heat the oven to 450°F. Peel the rutabaga with a vegetable peeler and cut into 1/2-inch to 3/4-inch cubes.

 

Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat and cook for about 5 minutes, until the butter foams then browns into a nutty, toasty-smelling liquid.

 

Toss the rutabaga with the browned butter and season with salt and pepper. Transfer the rutabaga to a large baking sheet and spread into a single layer. Roast for 25 to 40 minutes or until browned and tender. Remove from the baking sheet and toss with lemon juice and parsley.
