For enhanced flavor, consider adding a clove of minced garlic or a sprig of fresh thyme to the vegetables before roasting. To achieve optimal caramelization, ensure the vegetables are spaced evenly on the baking sheet. Overcrowding will result in steaming rather than roasting. Adjust the roasting time based on the size of your vegetable pieces and the desired level of tenderness.
