SAVORY ROASTED BABY CARROTS



Savory Roasted Baby Carrots image

These salty little morsels are better than french fries, IMHO. You can go a little heavier on any of the seasonings, to taste, sometimes I even add a touch of cayenne for those who like a *kick*-

Time 35m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 (16 ounce) bag baby carrots
3 teaspoons olive oil
1/4 teaspoon coriander
1/4 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Toss the carrots with the olive oil, thoroughly coating all the carrots. Spread in a single layer on a baking sheet (I like to line mine with foil, makes for easy cleanup). Bake at 450 degrees Fahrenheit for 30 minutes, stirring them around every 10 minutes. The carrots will become browned and caramelized, and the littlest ones may get quite brown, I have found they are just as delicious (maybe the most delicious) and leave them alone :) After they are roasted, sprinkle with the seasonings, and toss together to distribute the seasonings evenly throughout.

ROASTED CARROTS



Roasted Carrots image

This dish is inspired by a roasted carrot antipasto I recently sampled at Oliveto Cafe in Oakland, Calif. The roasted carrots were tossed with lots of parsley and thyme, and I loved the way those bitter herbs offset the sweetness of the carrots.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Categories     easy, side dish

Time 1h

Yield Serves six

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 pounds carrots, peeled quartered or cut into sixths lengthwise depending on the size, then into 2-inch lengths
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
Salt
freshly ground pepper
1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves, chopped
1/2 teaspoon oregano
3 tablespoons finely chopped flat-leaf parsley

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Oil a sheet pan or a baking dish large enough to fit all of the carrots in a single layer. Place the carrots in a large bowl, and toss with the olive oil, salt, pepper, thyme and oregano.
  • Spread in an even layer in the prepared pan or baking dish. Cover with foil, and place in the oven for 30 minutes. Uncover, and if the carrots are not yet tender, turn the heat down to 375 degrees and return to the oven for 10 to 15 more minutes until tender. Add the parsley, stir gently, and taste and adjust salt and pepper. Serve hot, warm or at room temperature.

Tips:

  • Choose the right carrots: Look for small, tender baby carrots with smooth skin and no blemishes.
  • Wash and trim the carrots: Scrub the carrots thoroughly to remove any dirt or debris. Trim off the tops and bottoms.
  • Roast the carrots at a high temperature: This will help to caramelize the natural sugars in the carrots and give them a slightly sweet and crispy exterior.
  • Use a variety of seasonings: Season the carrots with a combination of herbs, spices, and salt and pepper. Common seasonings include garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, cumin, and thyme.
  • Roast the carrots until they are tender: The carrots should be tender when pierced with a fork, but still slightly firm in the center.
  • Serve the carrots immediately: Roasted baby carrots are best served immediately, while they are still warm and crispy.

Conclusion:

Roasted baby carrots are a delicious and versatile side dish that can be enjoyed as part of a healthy meal. They are easy to make and can be customized to your own taste preferences. With a variety of seasonings and roasting techniques to choose from, you can create a dish that is sure to please everyone at your table.
