Help ...roast veg I have no olive oil shall i use walnut oil or vegetable oil?

[childminderjanet]

Or borrow olive oil from the neighbours?

Veg oil is fine.

if the neighbours won't mind olive oil is nices but veg oil will do just fine.

walnut oil is sfor dressings and not really for cooking

SORRY Its not walnut oil its toasted sesame oil.

ahhhhhh, use the veg oil with a dash of sesame init, yummy!

veg oil it is then.
Thank you

With of course a drizzle of toasted sesame oil over the top

I try this a lot- the making roas veg and it turns to mush, dont know what I do wrong.

Especially sweet potato want it crisp but that is so soft and mushy

a good tip is to heat the roasting pan and oil in advance and when you're putting the veg in roll them around so they get coated in oil. (i usually have some butter inthere too for yumy flavour)

sound like you mightbe using too much oil maybe? or not a high enough temperature?

how exactly do you do them so we can see where it goes wrong...

Use the veg oil and sprinkle a bit of sesame over it in the last 10 mins.I love roasted veg!

Hiya

Normally i put a little olive oil/sesame oil- about 1-2 tablespoons over vegetables in oven at gas mark 6 for about 20-25 mins and its like mush especially sweet potatio

JB,you're doing them for too long.
Put things like this in a good 10-15 mins after the potatoes and carrots.
Also make sure th4e chunks are large

will try again moondog thanks
