Grilled Fall Vegetable Salad with Boiled Dressing

  1. Preheat the oven to 400.
  2. Put the beets in a small baking dish, cover with foil and bake for about 40 minutes, until tender.
  3. When cool enough to handle, peel and halve the beets and transfer to a large rimmed baking sheet.
  4. Bring a large saucepan of salted water to a boil.
  5. Add the carrots and boil over moderately high heat until crisp-tender, about 4 minutes.
  6. With a slotted spoon, transfer to the baking sheet.
  7. Add the turnips to the boiling water and cook until just tender, about 3 minutes; transfer to the baking sheet.
  8. Repeat with the asparagus, cooking until bright green, about 2 minutes; transfer to the baking sheet.
  9. Add the leeks and cook until just tender, about 2 minutes; transfer to the baking sheet.
  10. Halve the carrots, turnips and leeks lengthwise.
  11. Drizzle the vegetables with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
  12. In a medium stainless steel bowl, whisk the egg yolks with the vinegar, flour, mustard, sugar and cayenne pepper until smooth.
  13. Set the bowl over a saucepan of simmering water and whisk over low heat until hot and thick, about 2 minutes.
  14. Remove the bowl from the heat.
  15. Whisk in the butter, then the cream, creme fraiche, 1 tablespoon of the lemon juice and the lemon zest.
  16. Season with salt and pepper.
  17. Light a grill or preheat a grill pan.
  18. Grill the blanched vegetables over medium heat, turning once or twice, until lightly charred, about 5 minutes.

  20. Arrange the grilled vegetables over the arugula and serve the boiled dressing on the side.
