Preparation
- Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Combine the carrots, potatoes, sugar snap or snow peas, green peas, scallions, tomatoes and garlic in a large, shallow casserole. Toss with the salt and pepper. Drizzle the olive oil over the top and pour in the chicken broth. Bake until all of the vegetables are soft, about 2 hours.
- Step 2
Sprinkle the cheese over the top and place under the broiler until lightly browned, about 3 minutes. Serve with grilled veal chops or roast chicken, if desired.

Why do you not peel the garlic? Do you then remove it before serving?
@Dick: When you cook garlic in its skin, it becomes soft and develops a less aggressive, slightly sweet taste. In French it's called "ail en chemise" or "garlic in its shirt". The French don't remove the skin before serving (because it's quite beautiful), but it's not meant to be consumed. When eating, each person can either remove the skin with knife and fork (it slides off easily), or pick it up with your hand and delicately suck out the garlic.
An oldie but goodie. I've been making this every spring since first seeing the article/recipe in 1995. One of the greatest, easiest, and most delicious vegetable recipes I've ever made. The only comment I'd make is to stir once in a while so the snow peas don't get burned.
