Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Carrots
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Ground paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground coriander
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Peel the carrots and cut them into uniform sticks or rounds, about 1/2-inch thick, to ensure even cooking.
In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, ground cumin, ground paprika, ground coriander, salt, black pepper, and honey. Stir to create a flavorful spice coating.
Add the carrots to the bowl and toss well to ensure they are evenly coated with the spice mixture.
Spread the spiced carrots in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet to avoid overcrowding, which ensures proper roasting.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 20-25 minutes, flipping the carrots halfway through for even browning.
Check for doneness by piercing the carrots with a fork; they should be tender but not mushy.
Remove the carrots from the oven and transfer them to a serving dish. Garnish with fresh parsley, if desired, for a pop of color and freshness.
Serve warm and enjoy your flavorful Roasted Spiced Carrots as a delicious side dish!
