Equipment

  • oven
  • Bowl
  • tray

Ingredients
  

  • 1 kg carrots peeled
  • ¼ cup brown sugar loosely packed
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 tablespoon butter melted (or olive oil)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 220C/425F (standard) or 200C/400F (fan).
  • Cut carrot on the diagonal into 4cm / 1.75” lengths. Halve thicker end so they are all roughly the same width.
  • Toss in a bowl with sugar, butter, garlic, oil, salt and pepper. Pour onto tray, spread out.
  • Roast 15 minutes. Toss, then roast a further 10 minutes until soft and caramelised on the edges with plenty of glaze left on the tray.
  • Toss carrots in the glaze, sprinkle with parsley if using. Serve warm.

Notes

Nice holiday touch is to add ½ teaspoon of cinnamon! For a kick, add cayenne pepper. Carrots – use any type of carrots. Baby, dutch, purple or standard (as I have done). Sugar – Can be substituted with honey or maple syrup, and can reduce down to 1 tbsp.
