FIVE-SPICE ROASTED CARROTS WITH TOASTED ALMONDS
A complex combination of fennel seeds, anise, clove, cinnamon and Szechuan peppercorns, five-spice powder is a crucial ingredient in the Chinese pantry that also happens to be deeply versatile. It can be used as a dry rub for roast chicken, tossed with sautéed vegetables or sprinkled over toasted nuts. Here, five-spice powder, along with a bright splash of vinegar and ginger, dresses up simple roasted carrots. Preheating your baking sheet in the oven will help caramelize and crisp your vegetables, and will also speed up cooking time.

Steps:
- Arrange one oven rack at the top and one at the bottom of the oven. Place a baking sheet on the bottom rack and heat the oven to 425 degrees.
- In large bowl, stir together 2 tablespoons olive oil with the five-spice powder, garlic and 1 teaspoon salt. Add the carrots and toss to coat. Transfer carrots to the hot baking sheet and arrange in an even layer and roast, on the bottom rack, until the carrots are tender and browned all over, 20 to 25 minutes, flipping halfway through.
- While carrots are roasting, toast almonds on a separate baking sheet, on the top rack, until golden brown, 7 to 8 minutes. Allow to cool, then finely chop and transfer to a large bowl or serving platter. Add the chives, vinegar, ginger and remaining olive oil to the almonds, and season with salt. Add roasted carrots and toss to coat. Serve hot.

Tips:
- Choose the right carrots: Look for carrots that are firm and have a deep orange color. Avoid carrots that are limp or have brown spots.
- Cut the carrots evenly: This will help them cook evenly. If you are using baby carrots, you can leave them whole.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: If you are cooking a lot of carrots, cook them in batches. Overcrowding the pan will prevent them from cooking evenly.
- Stir the carrots occasionally: This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from sticking to the pan.
- Season the carrots to taste: You can use salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, or other spices to season the carrots. Chili flakes will offer a bit of heat.
- Serve the carrots immediately: Five spice carrots are best served hot. You can garnish them with fresh parsley or cilantro.
Conclusion:
Five spice carrots are a delicious and healthy side dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you like them sweet, spicy, or somewhere in between, five spice carrots are sure to become a favorite in your home.
