Roasted Hot Honey Glazed Carrots

lbs Whole carrots

Salted butter

Honey

tbsp Calabrian chilli paste

Garlic (finely minced)

Lemon (zested, juiced)

Sea salt (to taste)

Preheat the oven to 400°F.

Cut the carrots in half, lengthwise down the middle, and arrange on a sheet tray.

Add the butter to a microwave-safe bowl, and melt the butter in 10 second increments until completely the butter is completely liquid. Add the honey, Calabrian chilli paste, garlic, lemon juice and zest, and salt to the butter, and combine.

Pour the honey butter over the carrots, and lightly toss so all the carrots are coated completely.

Bake the carrots for 15-20 minutes until they are tender, and have let some of their water out. Switch the oven to broil for another 5-7 minutes to caramelize the carrots and to thicken the glaze, and serve.

Roasted Rainbow Carrots

carrots

Sea salt and black pepper

Tahini Sauce

Pomegranate arils (for garnish)

carrot

parsley

garlic (grated)

orange zest

cumin seeds (roughly ground in a mortar and pestle)

sea salt

Preheat the oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Wash the carrots and their tops well and pat them dry. Slice the tops off the carrots and set them aside for the gremolata.

Place the whole carrots on the baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Toss to coat and spread evenly on the baking sheet. Roast for 20 to 30 minutes, or until tender and browned around the edges.

Meanwhile, make the gremolata: Chop the carrot tops and measure ¼ cup. Save the remaining carrot tops for another use, such as homemade vegetable broth.

Place the ¼ cup chopped carrot tops in a medium bowl and add the parsley, garlic, orange zest, cumin seeds, and salt. Stir to combine.

Toss the rainbow carrots with the gremolata while they’re still warm from the oven. Transfer to a serving platter, drizzle with the tahini sauce, and garnish with pomegranate arils. Season to taste and serve.
