Sweet and Savory Delight: Rosemary and Honey Roasted Carrots

Exploring new flavors: Rosemary and Honey Roasted Carrots

Hello foodies! Today, I’m excited to share with you my latest creation: Rosemary and Honey Roasted Carrots. This dish was inspired by a recent trip to a local farmer’s market where I picked up some fresh, vibrant carrots. I wanted to create a recipe that combined sweet and savory flavors with a touch of earthiness, and these roasted carrots hit the spot perfectly.

Ingredients:

• 500g rainbow carrots
• 50ml honey
• 30ml olive oil
• 3 sprigs of fresh rosemary
• 1 tsp sea salt
• 1/2 tsp black pepper

Kitchen tools:

• baking sheet
• mixing bowl
• knife
• cutting board

To start, preheat your oven to 200°C. Wash and peel the carrots, then cut them into uniform sticks. In a mixing bowl, combine the honey, olive oil, chopped rosemary leaves, sea salt, and black pepper. Add the carrot sticks to the bowl and toss them until they are well coated with the mixture.

Spread the carrots out on a baking sheet in a single layer. Roast them in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until they are caramelized and tender, stirring halfway through the cooking time.

Once the carrots are roasted to perfection, remove them from the oven and transfer them to a serving dish. Garnish with some extra fresh rosemary leaves for a pop of color and flavor. These Rosemary and Honey Roasted Carrots are best served hot as a side dish or a tasty snack.

The total weight of the cooked dish is approximately 600g, with 4 servings and an average serving weight of 150g. Each serving is estimated to be around 120 calories.

One unusual tip for this recipe is to sprinkle some crumbled feta cheese over the roasted carrots before serving. The salty tang of the cheese pairs beautifully with the sweet honey and earthy rosemary, taking this dish to the next level.

I hope you give these Rosemary and Honey Roasted Carrots a try and enjoy the delicious combination of flavors. Feel free to customize the recipe with your favorite herbs or spices to make it your own. Happy cooking!
