  • Bake for 50 minutes to 1 hour or until carrots and potatoes are fork tender and lightly browned. At about 45 minutes and add the peas and a little more vegetable broth if the mixture has dried out, just do it doesn’t burn while continuing to cook.
  • Remove from oven and season with more kosher salt and pepper if desired and stir in additional ¼ cup basil leaves and chopped mint. Serve immediately or at room temperature.
