ROSEMARY ROASTED BABY CARROTS
Baby carrots go over big when seasoned with the subtle taste of rosemary. I like to sprinkle raisins on top for a combination of sweet and savory. -Aysha Schurman, Ammon, Idaho

ROSEMARY RACK OF LAMB WITH ROASTED POTATOES AND CARROTS FOR TWO
Inspired by "Valentine Dinner for Two" from the February 1977 issue of Glamour magazine, this elegant and romantic dinner features miso butter basted hassleback potatoes and honey butter-glazed carrots. Though this recipe serves two, it can easily be increased to serve more.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425°F. Rub lamb with garlic, rosemary, pepper, and 1/2 tsp. salt.
- Combine miso, paprika, 4 Tbsp. butter, and 1/2 tsp. salt in a small bowl; set aside.
- Peel potatoes. Working with one potato at a time, slice a thin sliver off one long side to make a flat bottom. Trim ends off, then slice vertically every 1/16", cutting down to 1/4" from the bottom. (To make sure you do not cut all the way through the potato, line it with chopsticks on each side to stop your knife.) Brush potatoes with miso butter, fanning slices open to get butter between each slice. Transfer to a rimmed baking sheet and roast 15 minutes.
- Remove baking sheet from oven and brush potatoes with more miso butter. Arrange lamb on baking sheet alongside potatoes and roast, brushing potatoes with miso butter halfway through, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the lamb registers 125°F for medium-rare, and the potatoes are fork-tender, 20-25 minutes. Transfer lamb to a cutting board and let rest 10 minutes, and continue roasting the potatoes if needed until fork-tender.
- Meanwhile, mix honey, coriander, and remaining 1 Tbsp. butter and 1/4 tsp. salt in a small bowl, then brush over carrots. Arrange carrots on a baking sheet and roast until lightly browned and fork-tender, 15-20 minutes.
- Slice lamb between each rib. Brush potatoes with remaining miso butter, top carrots with parsley, and serve alongside lamb.
ROSEMARY-ROASTED CARROTS
Simplistic and delicious! High heat roasting of the carrots intensifies the flavor and almost caramelizes them. This really is the best way to cook almost all root vegetables to get the full flavor of the vegetable! Preparation time includes peeling and cutting carrots. You can eliminate this if you use precut or washed baby carrots.

Steps:

- If you are using whole carrots, peel and cut into 2" diagonal sections (I like to cut carrots on a diagonal just because they look more appealing).
- Break garlic into individual cloves but leave the skins on.
- Toss all ingredients in roasting pan that is just large enough to hold everything.
- Roast for approx 20-30 minutes or until browned, stirring occasionally. Serve immediately.

Tips:
- Choose the right carrots: Look for fresh, firm carrots with smooth skin and no blemishes.
- Wash and peel the carrots: Scrub the carrots well under running water to remove any dirt or debris. Then, use a vegetable peeler to remove the outer layer of skin.
- Cut the carrots into even pieces: For even cooking, cut the carrots into pieces of the same size and shape. For baby carrots, leave them whole.
- Toss the carrots with olive oil and seasonings: In a large bowl, combine the carrots, olive oil, salt, pepper, and rosemary. Toss to coat the carrots evenly.
- Roast the carrots: Spread the carrots in a single layer on a baking sheet and place in a preheated oven. Roast the carrots for 20-30 minutes, or until tender and slightly caramelized.
- Serve immediately: Rosemary roasted carrots are best served immediately, while they are still warm and crispy.
Conclusion:
Rosemary roasted carrots are a delicious and easy side dish that is perfect for any occasion. The carrots are roasted until tender and slightly caramelized, and the rosemary adds a fragrant flavor that pairs perfectly with the sweetness of the carrots. This dish is a great way to get your daily dose of vegetables, and it is sure to be a hit with everyone at the table.
