ROASTED POTATOES AND BABY CARROTS WITH GARLIC



Roasted Potatoes and Baby Carrots With Garlic image

I just purchase a small bag of baby carrots and use the whole bag for this, or use regular peeled carrots cut into about 2-inch chunks. Try to use a good quality olive oil for this. After you have been making this for a while you will know just how much to adjust your salt and garlic, the amounts listed are about the amounts I use when I make this, but all ingredients can be adjusted to suit taste, if you are a garlic-lover use lots of garlic, after cooking the garlic flavor will mellow and will not as strong, so don't be intimated by 8 cloves! This can be made hours in advance and just rewarmed. If you find that the baby carrots are done before the potatoes just remove them to a bowl. I make this very often, it is a simple side dish with lots of flavor, I roast all of my root veggies using the same method and ingredients, rutabagas, parsnips, beets, large chunky size carrots and even sweet potatoes or yams, just peel them and chop into 2-inch pieces (larger size for yams). This is a fantastic side dish, simple and delicious!

MASHED GARLIC CARROTS



Mashed Garlic Carrots image

I came up with this alternative after trying ladypits wonderful mashed spiced carrots recipe #75554. I was delighted by the taste and texture and wondered how it would be with a more savory flavor. This is a hit for me as well. I liked them both so much I have made extra to feed to my freezer.

Provided by Kanzeda

Categories     Vegetable

Time 20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

3 1/2 cups sliced carrots (1/4 inch thick)
3 cloves garlic (roasted)
2 tablespoons vegetable stock
1 teaspoon dried thyme
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Steam the carrots until cooked through (I usually like them crisp in the center, but that will not work here).
  • Mash the carrots with a fork or potato masher and add the roasted garlic.
  • Add the stock and the thyme and mix well.
  • Add your salt and pepper to taste.
  • Simply multiply recipe for bulk/freezer cooking.

Tips:

  • Select firm, young carrots: Choose carrots that are smooth, brightly colored, and free of blemishes. Avoid carrots with soft spots or cracks.
  • Peel the carrots thinly: Use a vegetable peeler to remove the thin outer layer of the carrots. This will help the garlic and butter flavor penetrate the carrots more easily.
  • Slice the carrots evenly: Cut the carrots into uniform slices so that they cook evenly. Aim for slices that are about 1/4 inch thick.
  • Use fresh garlic: Fresh garlic has a more pungent flavor than dried garlic. If you don't have fresh garlic, you can use 1/4 teaspoon of garlic powder.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: Cook the carrots in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding the pan. Overcrowding will prevent the carrots from cooking evenly.
  • Cook the carrots until tender: Cook the carrots until they are tender but still have a slight crunch. Overcooking will make the carrots mushy.
  • Season to taste: Add salt and pepper to taste. You can also add other seasonings, such as thyme, rosemary, or paprika.
  • Serve immediately: Garlic carrots are best served immediately after cooking. They can be served as a side dish or as a snack.

Conclusion:

Garlic carrots are a simple but delicious 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. With their sweet and savory flavor, garlic carrots are sure to be a hit at your next meal.
