Garlic and herb baked Jerusalem artichokes

This knobby, nutty tasting vegetable is highly underrated - I think it's because people just don’t know what to do with it. Actually, it’s really easy to cook (no need to peel) and so it's perfect with a Sunday Roast or midweek supper. This garlic and herb baked Jerusalem artichokes is a simple dish yet tastes fantastic! Ideal for dinner parties!
