## Tips

- A fan oven cooks hotter: set it 20°C lower than a conventional oven, as given here.
- Spread vegetables out in one layer. Crowded trays steam instead of roasting and won’t brown.
- Toss vegetables in about 1 tablespoon of oil per 500 g, with salt, before roasting.
- Turn things halfway through so both sides colour.
