Something my mom used to whip up for dinner during the week, these are fancy and delicious enough for company too! Use the most slender carrots you can find, as they're the sweetest. Ingredients:
1 lb slender, fresh carrots (ideally heirlooms) |
1 tsp olive oil |
1/4 cup dark honey |
1/4 cup vegetable broth |
1/2 cup fresh lemon juice (for company / special occasions, use meyer lemons) |
1 tsp lemon zest |
3 cloves garlic, cracked but left whole |
1 tsp paprika |
1 tsp onion powder |
2 tsp dried basil |
1/2 tsp fennel seed |
pinch sea salt |
Directions:
1. Preheat the oven to 400F.
2. Halve the carrots lengthwise, and if they're very long cut in half across. Place in the bottom of a casserole dish.
3. In a bowl whisk together the remaining ingredients.
4. Pour over the carrots and stir to evenly coat.
5. Cover and roast for 15 minutes.
6. Stir, then uncover and roast a further 15 minutes.
