Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

A great vegetarian dish on its own, or simply serve as a wintry pot of vegetables in the middle of the table with a roast.

4 large carrots, peeled and cut into 1cm-thick slices on the slant
Half a swede, peeled and cut into rough chunks the size of the carrots
A couple of turnips, peeled if necessary and cut into wedges a similar size to above
A medium-sized parsnip, peeled and cut into similar-sized chunks as above
12 or so shallots or button onions, peeled
4 cloves of garlic, peeled
A few sprigs of rosemary
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
100g butter
150ml vegetable stock

Pre-heat the oven to 180C/gas mark 5.

Heat the butter in an oven-proof casserole dish on the stove, add all of the vegetables, garlic and rosemary, season and cook on a medium heat with the lid on for 2-3 minutes, stirring every so often. Transfer to the oven and cook for 30 minutes. Add the stock and cook for another 15 minutes with the lid off, stirring every so often. The vegetables should all be tender by now, if not give them another 15 minutes or so.
