Butter Root Vegetables


1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 pound parsnips, peeled, cut into cubes
1 pound carrots, peeled, cut into cubes
1 pound turnips, split into halves
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, cold and cubed
1 cup chicken stock
1/2 cup mixed chopped fresh herbs, like chervil, parsley and thyme
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Put the olive oil and butter into a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the vegetables and toss to coat them well with the fat; season with salt and pepper. Add 1 cup chicken stock and bring to a boil. Lower the heat to a simmer, cover the pot, and cook until the vegetables are tender, about 20 minutes. Add butter and toss until incorporated. To serve, pour vegetables in a large bowl and shower with mixed herbs and season with salt and pepper.
