Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Carrots
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme (optional)
- 100 grams Gorgonzola cheese
- 2 tablespoons Chopped walnuts (optional, for garnish)
- 1 tablespoon Honey (optional, for drizzle)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
Peel the carrots and cut them into even-sized sticks, about 2 cm thick, to ensure even cooking.
Place the carrot sticks on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Drizzle the olive oil over the carrots. Sprinkle with salt, black pepper, and fresh thyme if using. Toss well to coat the carrots evenly.
Spread the carrots out in a single layer to ensure they roast evenly. Roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, turning them halfway through cooking, until they are tender and slightly caramelized.
Meanwhile, crumble the Gorgonzola cheese into small pieces for easy topping.
Once the carrots are roasted, transfer them to a serving platter.
Scatter the crumbled Gorgonzola cheese over the hot carrots, allowing the cheese to soften slightly from the heat.
Optional: Sprinkle chopped walnuts over the top for added crunch, and drizzle with honey for a touch of sweetness.
Serve warm as an appetizer or side dish. Enjoy!
