This recipe is a hit! The roasted sunchokes had a crispy exterior and meltingly soft interior and the fennel got crispy and delicious. I scrubbed the sunchokes and sliced them as well as the fennel so they would roast more quickly... check the time they are in the oven, if you do this... check them at 25 min. However, I live at a high altitude and that may affect the length of time in the oven. I have served this w/ham and different kinds of sausages. I would serve to guests.
Roasted Sunchokes and Fennel
Roasting minimally seasoned sunchokes allows their true flavor to shine through. With crisp, browned skin and tender flesh, they taste like a cross between a baked potato and an artichoke heart.
