Crunchy on the outsize, with a caramelized coating and fluffy, soft insides... The Perfect Roasted Vegetable.

2 x Sweet Potatoes
2 x Potatoes
2 x Carrots
3/4 cup aprox Lard

Pre-Heat an oven to 200 degrees centigrade.
Place Lard into Baking Pan, you want enough Lard so that the base is covered completely about a cm high **once melted.
Put Baking Pan into the oven, the Lard needs to be boiling hot before adding the Veggies.
Peel and Chop Veggies while Lard and oven are heating up.
Boil the chopped Veggies in Water until soft enough to be poked into with a Fork.
You know the Veggies are ready to be added to the Lard when the Lard boils and bubbles when a Potato is placed into the Baking pan.
Put the drained Veggies into the Lard and bake in the oven for aprox a hour, turning the Veggies occasionally through cooking time.
Once cooked drain on paper towel before serving...
