Ingredients

  • 450g Jerusalem artichokes, well scrubbed

  • 2 tbsp sunflower or olive oil

  • salt

  • pepper

  • a few rosemary or thyme sprigs, optional

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 200°C.

  2. Leave the artichokes whole or cut in half lengthways, if large.

  3. Toss the Jerusalem artichokes with the oil. Season well with salt. Bake in a shallow gratin dish or roasting tin for 20 to 30 minutes.

  4. Test with the tip of a knife — they should be mostly tender but offer some resistance. Sprinkle with thyme or rosemary. Season with pepper and serve.
