Method

  1. Heat oven to 220C/fan 200C/gas 7. Heat a heavy-based oven roasting pan on top of the stove and toss in the vegetables and garlic. Sprinkle with the oil. Stir until they start to brown. Add the herbs, sprinkle over the vinegar and season well.
  2. Put the pan in the oven and roast for about 15 mins, then reduce the heat to 190C/fan 170C/gas 5 and continue cooking for another 30 mins or so, stirring 2 to 3 times until the beetroots are tender. If the vegetables start to burn, add a little more oil and vinegar to the pan. Serve as a vegetable dish scattered with toasted pine nuts or as a main course with baby goat's cheese, cooked white beans and rocket.

    The cooking times weren't right for this, the leeks take less time than the other ingredients, so I would suggest adding them part way through the cooking process.
