ROASTED CARROTS AND SCALLIONS WITH THYME AND HAZELNUTS



Roasted Carrots and Scallions With Thyme and Hazelnuts image

I bought incredibly sweet, baby red onions - they look like thick red scallions - and multicolored bunches of carrots from a farmer at my market and roasted them with fresh thyme. Then I sprinkled on some crushed toasted hazelnuts, which contributed a nice crunchy texture and nutty finish to the dish. If you have a bottle of hazelnut oil or walnut oil on hand, a small drizzle just before serving is a welcome touch.

Time 1h

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 ounce hazelnuts (about 1/4 cup)
1 pound carrots, preferably young small carrots, any color (but a mix is nice)
1 bunch white or purple spring onions or scallions
Salt and freshly ground pepper
2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
Optional: a drizzle of hazelnut oil or walnut oil for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Place the hazelnuts on a baking sheet and roast for 8 to 10 minutes, until they smell toasty and they a're golden all the way through (cut one in half to check). Remove from the oven and turn up the heat to 425 degrees.
  • Immediately wrap the hazelnuts in a clean, dry dish towel. Rub them in the towel to remove the skins. Then place the skinned hazelnuts in a plastic bag or, if you have one, a disposable pastry bag and set on your work table in one layer. Use a rolling pin to crush the nuts by rolling over them with the pin. Set aside.
  • Line a sheet pan with parchment or oil a baking dish large enough to fit all of the vegetables in a single layer. If the carrots are small, just peel and trim the tops and bottoms. If they are medium- sized, peel, cut in half and cut into 4-inch lengths. Quarter large carrots and cut into 4-inch lengths. Trim the root ends and greens from the spring onions or scallions. If they are bulbous, cut them in half. Season with salt and pepper, add the thyme and olive oil and toss well, either directly on the pan or in the dish or in a bowl. Spread in an even layer in the baking dish or on the baking sheet.
  • Roast in the oven for 20 to 30 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes. The onions may be done after 10 minutes - they should be soft and lightly browned. Remove them from the pan if they are and hold on a plate. When the carrots and onions are tender and browned in places, remove from the oven. Add the onions back into the mix if you 've removed them and toss together. Sprinkle on the toasted ground hazelnuts, and drizzle on the optional nut oil, and serve.

MICROWAVE SWEET AND SPICY CARROTS WITH SCALLIONS



Microwave Sweet and Spicy Carrots with Scallions image

This simple carrot side gets a dose of sweetness from a dash of brown sugar and unrefined coconut oil (unrefined is key, as it has not been whitened or deodorized, so it keeps its mellow coconut flavor in recipes). Top the potassium-rich carrots with grilled shrimp for a quick weeknight dinner.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     side-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/2 pounds carrots, peeled and tops trimmed
2 tablespoons unrefined coconut oil
1 tablespoon light brown sugar, lightly packed
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper
Kosher salt
2 tablespoons white distilled vinegar
2 scallions, thinly sliced on a deep bias

Steps:

  • Cut the carrots using a roll-cut: one carrot at a time, slice diagonal chunks from the carrot, rolling it a quarter-turn between cuts to create faceted bite-size pieces.
  • Combine the coconut oil, brown sugar, cumin, crushed red pepper and 1 teaspoon salt in an 8-inch square baking dish. Microwave on high until just melted, about 30 seconds. Stir in the vinegar and carrots. Cover with a vented lid or plastic wrap with 6 small holes poked in it.
  • Microwave on high for 5 minutes. Uncover, being careful to avoid the steam, and give the carrots a stir. Cover again and microwave on high, stirring every 5 minutes, until the carrots are tender and have absorbed most of the liquid, about 10 more minutes. Uncover and stir in all but 1 teaspoon of the scallions. Transfer to a serving dish, top with the reserved scallions and serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Choose the right carrots: Look for baby carrots that are small, tender, and have a bright orange color. Avoid carrots that are too large or have blemishes.
  • Prepare the carrots properly: Scrub the carrots well to remove any dirt or debris. Then, trim the ends and cut them into 2-inch pieces.
  • Use fresh scallions: Fresh scallions will give your dish the best flavor. If you don't have fresh scallions, you can use dried scallions, but they will not have as much flavor.
  • Don't overcook the carrots: Baby carrots cook quickly, so it's important not to overcook them. Overcooked carrots will be mushy and lose their flavor.
  • Season to taste: Add salt and pepper to taste. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.

Conclusion:

Baby carrots with scallions is a simple but flavorful side dish that can be enjoyed with a variety of main courses. It's a healthy and delicious way to get your daily dose of vegetables. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy side dish, give this recipe a try.
