Yield Serves 6-8

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 teaspoon grated orange zest, plus 1 1/2 teaspoons orange juice
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt, divided
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 pound carrots, peeled
1 pound parsnips, peeled
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425°F.
  • In a small bowl, combine butter, orange zest, orange juice, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper; stir well to combine. Set the citrus butter aside.
  • Peel the carrots and parsnips and cut them lengthwise into long wedges, which that will get a bit browned and crisp at the ends. If I am roasting young carrots small enough to cook whole or halved lengthwise, I like to leave a half inch or so of the greens attached-looks pretty. Parsnips will cook at about the same rate as carrots, so cut them into similar-size pieces.
  • On a rimmed baking sheet, toss vegetables with oil; season with 1 teaspoon salt and toss again. Spread the vegetables flat and roast until tender and lightly browned (and more than lightly browned on the thinner edges), tossing halfway through, 20 to 30 minutes. If they seem to be getting too browned before tender, sprinkle them with a little water and keep roasting.
  • When vegetables are roasted, place in a warmed dish and spoon the citrus butter on, tossing them gently to melt the butter and coat the roots. Serve warm.

SLOW-ROASTED CARROTS WITH BROWN-BUTTER VINAIGRETTE



Slow-Roasted Carrots With Brown-Butter Vinaigrette image

Elevating vegetables to star status is a better display of your culinary chops - and a more unconventional and surprising one - than showcasing a piece of meat. These are an adaptation of the "forgotten carrots" served by Neil Borthwick at Merchants Tavern in London; they actually do require a little bit of attention.

Provided by Mark Bittman

Categories     weekday, side dish

Time 1h30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 pounds large carrots
3 tablespoons olive oil
8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter,plus 3 extra tablespoons for roastingthe carrots
2 cardamom pods
2 star anise
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons sherry vinegar
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
3 tablespoons chervil leaves orchopped fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 325. Scrub the carrots, and peel them if you like (it really doesn't matter). Set a roasting pan over two burners on medium heat; put the olive oil in the pan. When the oil is hot, add the carrots and cook, turning as they brown, until lightly caramelized all over, 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Add 3 tablespoons butter, spices, salt and pepper. Transfer the roasting pan to the oven, and cook, shaking the pan once or twice, until the carrots are crinkly on the outside and you can pierce them easily with the tip of a sharp knife, 45 to 60 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, put 1 stick butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally until the butter foam subsides and the butter turns nut brown, about 5 minutes. Turn off the heat.
  • Put brown butter, vinegar, Dijon, salt and pepper in a blender. Blend until a creamy emulsion forms, about 30 seconds; taste, and adjust the seasoning. Put the carrots on a platter, drizzle the vinaigrette over the top and garnish with the chervil or parsley, and serve.

ROASTED CARROTS WITH LEMON DRESSING



Roasted Carrots with Lemon Dressing image

This lemony side dish gives carrots a little more sweetness with honey and a little zing from cayenne.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Healthy Recipes     Gluten-Free Recipes

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 pounds carrots (15 to 20 medium), cut into pieces 2 inches long and 1/2 inch thick
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Coarse salt
2 tablespoons honey
1/2 teaspoon grated lemon zest, and 3 tablespoons juice (from about 1 lemon)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees. On a large rimmed baking sheet, toss carrots with oil and cayenne; season with salt. Arrange in a single layer (use 2 baking sheets, if necessary). Roast, tossing once halfway through, until tender, 30 to 40 minutes.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together honey, zest, and lemon juice; season with salt. If making ahead of time, cover and refrigerate carrots and dressing separately, up to 1 day. Otherwise, drizzle dressing over cooked carrots (still on baking sheet); toss to coat. Transfer to a serving dish; serve warm or at room temperature.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, firm carrots for roasting. Avoid carrots that are limp or have blemishes.
  • Cut the carrots into even-sized pieces so that they cook evenly.
  • Toss the carrots with olive oil, salt, and pepper before roasting. This will help them to brown and caramelize.
  • Roast the carrots at a high temperature (425 degrees Fahrenheit) for 20-30 minutes, or until they are tender and slightly charred.
  • Make the citrus vinaigrette while the carrots are roasting. This will give the flavors time to meld.
  • Drizzle the citrus vinaigrette over the roasted carrots before serving. You can also sprinkle them with fresh herbs, such as cilantro or parsley.

Conclusion:

Roasted carrots with citrus vinaigrette are a delicious and healthy side dish that can be enjoyed with a variety of meals. They are easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. For a sweeter dish, use a sweeter citrus fruit, such as orange or grapefruit. For a more savory dish, use a tart citrus fruit, such as lemon or lime. You can also add other vegetables to the roast, such as parsnips, turnips, or sweet potatoes. This dish is a great way to get your daily dose of vegetables. Carrots are a good source of vitamins A, C, and K, as well as potassium and fiber. They are also low in calories and fat. Whether you are looking for a healthy side dish or a simple snack, roasted carrots with citrus vinaigrette are a great option.
