Here’s how to make the very best braised vegetables, a cozy and healthy side dish that tastes like it’s been roasting all day!

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 medium yellow onion
  • 1 medium red onion
  • 2 large carrots
  • 2 celery ribs
  • 4 medium waxy red potatoes
  • 4 garlic cloves
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon each dried oregano, tarragon and thyme
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • 1 cup water

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Farenheit.
  2. Cut the onions into large strips. Peel and slice the carrots. Slice the celery. Dice the potatoes into bite-sized chunks (no need to peel). Peel the garlic, leaving it whole.
  3. In an oven-proof Dutch oven or cast iron pan with a lid, heat the olive oil on the stovetop over medium heat. Add the onions and cook for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the carrots and celery and cook 2 minutes until browned. Remove from the heat.
  4. Stir in the potatoes, garlic, oregano, tarragon, thyme, kosher salt, and balsamic vinegar. Add the water and cover the pot.
  5. Place the pot in the oven and cook for 45 to 55 minutes, until the largest vegetables are tender.
  6. When the vegetables are done, remove them to a platter using a slotted spoon. Return the pot to the stovetop and simmer the pan juices for 5 minutes until they are reduced by about half. Drizzle the juices over the vegetables and serve.
