- 1/3 cup hazelnuts, skinned and toasted
- 1 (14-ounce) can fire-roasted tomatoes, such as Muir Glen
- 3 cloves garlic, peeled
- 2 tablespoons flat-leaf parsley
- 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika

- 3 pounds assorted root vegetables (such as carrots, parsnips, purple and white potatoes and sweet potatoes), peeled and cut into 2-inch cubes

- Then remove the peppers from the oven and immediately put them in a brown paper bag to steam.

- Reduce the oven temperature to 400F.
- Meanwhile, put the hazelnuts in the blender and pulse them until theyre coarsely ground.
- When your peppers are ready, add them to the blender with the reserved chile, tomatoes, garlic, parsley, vinegar, paprika and 1/4 cup of the oil.
- Puree until smooth.
- Put the cubed vegetables on a baking sheet and toss with the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil and the salt and pepper.
- Roast for 40 minutes or until tender and golden, turning the vegetables several times with a spatula while roasting.
