Roasted asparagus, baby carrots, and scallions are a simple yet delightful combination of vegetables that can be enjoyed as a side dish or as a main course. The asparagus and carrots are roasted until tender and slightly caramelized, while the scallions add a pop of color and flavor. This dish is a great way to get your daily dose of vegetables, and it's also a great way to use up any leftover asparagus or carrots you may have. The best part is that it only takes a few minutes to prepare, and most of the cooking time is hands-off.

Steps:
- In a kettle of boiling salted water cook the asparagus for 3 to 5 minutes, or until it is tender but not limp, and drain it well in a colander. In a small saucepan melt the butter, stir in the scallion, the zest, the peppercorns, and salt to taste, and simmer the mixture for 3 minutes. Strain the butter mixture through a fine sieve into the kettle, add the asparagus and salt and pepper to taste, and heat the asparagus over moderately high heat, tossing it gently, until it is heated through.
ROASTED ASPARAGUS AND SCALLION SALAD
In this hearty, many-textured salad, soft, roasted asparagus is tossed with chewy whole grains and crisp, sweet caramelized scallions. You can use freekeh or farro here for the grains. Both are whole-wheat kernels, but the freekeh has a slightly smoky note from being toasted, while the farro is nuttier-tasting. You can prepare the freekeh or farro ahead and let it marinate in the dressing for up to six hours, but it's best to roast the asparagus and scallions within an hour of serving. Don't use pecorino Romano here, it's too sharp. If you can't find a young pecorino, use a young manchego or even a nice Cheddar, and serve this as a light main course or a salad course to a more substantial meal.

Steps:
- Bring a small pot of heavily salted water to a boil, stir in freekeh or farro, cover, and simmer until al dente, 20 to 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in a large bowl, whisk together 2 teaspoons soy sauce, lime juice, garlic, and pinch salt and pepper. Drizzle in 3 tablespoons oil, whisking constantly.
- Drain freekeh and stir immediately into dressing while still warm.
- Heat oven to 425 degrees. Spread asparagus and scallions over a rimmed baking sheet and drizzle liberally with oil, 1/2 teaspoon soy sauce and a pinch of salt and pepper. Toss to combine, then arrange in a single layer. Roast until they start to char in spots, about 20 minutes. Let cool slightly: The asparagus are best while still a little warm but not hot enough to wilt the greens.
- Toss salad greens in the bowl with freekeh and dressing until leaves are coated, and transfer to serving platter. Top with roasted asparagus and scallions, shave cheese over salad if you like, and serve.

ROASTED CARROTS AND SCALLIONS WITH THYME AND HAZELNUTS
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.

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.

Steps:
- Trim carrot tops to 1/8 inch and diagonally cut asparagus into 4-inch lengths. In a large saucepan of boiling salted water cook carrots until crisp-tender, about 4 minutes, and transfer with a slotted spoon to a colander to drain. Return water to a boil and cook asparagus until crisp-tender, about 2 minutes. Drain asparagus in colander with carrots and in a bowl toss vegetables with butter and salt and pepper to taste.
Tips:
- Choose the freshest vegetables possible. Look for asparagus that is bright green and has tightly closed tips. Baby carrots should be firm and smooth, and scallions should be green and have no signs of wilting.
- Trim the vegetables properly. Asparagus should be trimmed at the bottom, where the woody part of the stalk begins. Baby carrots should be peeled, and scallions should be trimmed at both ends.
- Toss the vegetables with olive oil, salt, and pepper. This will help them to roast evenly and develop a delicious flavor.
- Roast the vegetables at a high temperature. This will help them to caramelize and develop a slightly crispy texture.
- Stir the vegetables occasionally during roasting. This will help them to cook evenly.
- Serve the vegetables immediately. They are best enjoyed when they are hot and fresh out of the oven.
Conclusion:
Roasted asparagus, baby carrots, and scallions are a delicious and healthy side dish that can be enjoyed with a variety of meals. They are easy to make and can be roasted in just 20 minutes. With their bright colors and flavors, these roasted vegetables are sure to be a hit at your next gathering.
