Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams carrots
- 300 grams red grapes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
Peel the carrots and slice them diagonally into 1/4-inch thick medallions.
Wash the grapes thoroughly and remove them from their stems.
Place the sliced carrots and grapes onto a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Drizzle the olive oil over the carrots and grapes, ensuring they are evenly coated.
In a small bowl, mix together the honey, thyme leaves, salt, and black pepper.
Drizzle the honey-thyme mixture over the carrots and grapes, tossing everything together to distribute the flavors evenly.
Spread the carrots and grapes into a single layer on the baking sheet to ensure even roasting.
Roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the carrots are tender and slightly caramelized, and the grapes are soft and beginning to burst.
Remove from the oven, transfer to a serving platter, and garnish with additional thyme leaves if desired.
Serve warm as a side dish or over a bed of greens for a unique salad option.
