Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 large Carrots
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground cumin
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground coriander
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.
Peel the carrots and cut them into thin sticks, approximately the size of traditional French fries (1/4 inch thick).
In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, ground cumin, ground coriander, salt, and black pepper. Stir until well mixed.
Add the carrot sticks to the bowl and toss until they are evenly coated with the spice mixture.
Spread the coated carrot sticks out on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer, making sure they are not overcrowded to ensure even roasting.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, flipping the fries halfway through to ensure even browning. The carrots should be golden and slightly crispy around the edges.
Remove the carrot fries from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley if desired.
Serve immediately as a snack, appetizer, or side dish with your favorite dipping sauce.
