- 25 grams salted butter
- 3 Tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon dried rosemary (1 tablespoon fresh chopped) (1 tablespoon fresh chopped)
- salt and pepper
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 200 degrees celsius
- Thinly slice your kumara into disks, I used a mandolin for this but you can use a sharp knife.
- Melt the butter, add the olive oil and rosemary to the melted butter and mix to combine.
- Pour half of the butter/oil and rosemary mix into the bottom of a large baking dish.
- Arange the slices of kumara into the baking dish so that they eventually sit almost vertically rather than lying flat.
- Season the kumara with salt and pepper.
- Brush the kumara slices with the remaining butter/oil.
- Cover the baking dish with either a well fitted lid or tin foil and bake for 1 hour at 200 degrees.
- Remove the lid or foil and bake for a further 10 minutes or so, so that the edges become a little golden.
- Enjoy!

Notes
- Rosemary: You can use either fresh or dried. Thyme also works well in this recipe.
- Butter and Olive oil: I find the combination of the two gives the best flavour.
- K?mara: This recipe will work with any variety of k?mara, I like to use a mixture to create a rainbow of colours.
