maple-glazed kumara & pears

1kg Red Kaipara Kumara
2 pears, washed
1 head garlic
1 red onion, peeled
5 sprigs thyme
1⁄2 cup maple syrup
1⁄4 cup canola oil
sea salt and milled black pepper, to taste

Preheat the oven to 180°C. Line a deep-sided baking dish with non-stick baking paper. Wash the Red Kaipara Kumara well and pat them dry.

Slice the kumara into quarters and place them in the baking dish. Cut the pears into quarters, cut away the cores and add them to the dish.

Slice the onion into 8 wedges through the core. Separate the head of garlic into cloves and add them to the dish along with the onion, thyme, maple syrup and canola oil. Season with sea salt and milled black pepper.

Roast in the oven for 40 minutes, tossing every 10 minutes until the glaze is sticky and the vegetables are cooked through. Serve hot as an accompaniment to roasted meats.
