This easy 4-step spiced, butter-roasted carrots recipe by Alison Roman is served with a scattering of walnuts and makes the perfect roast dinner side dish.
"I am not a very heavy-handed spice user in my savoury cooking, but there is something about sweet, earthy carrots that calls for it," writes chef Alison Roman in her new book,"Instead of getting toasted beforehand, the spices are roasted with the carrots , blooming in the fat as they cook, the butter lightly browning as the spices come alive, the walnuts toasting, the carrots tenderising, then caramelising – all at once," she adds.
"I’m admittedly wary of sweet vegetables, so I always like to anchor them in something deeply savoury. Here, raw garlic adds that intensity, but don’t worry, the heat from the just-roasted carrots gently tames its bite.The carrots can be roasted a few hours ahead of serving, gently rewarmed in the oven if your kitchen is cold and the butter has solidified.Roast chicken and a bowl of spelt tossed with herbs or alongside brothy beans or chickpeas and a perky salad.For fun and if you feel like it, thinly slice some of the carrots into coins. Halve the remaining ones lengthways, quartering them if they’re especially large or thick – it’s just nice to have different shapes that lead to some different textures once roasted.Toss the carrots, walnuts and olive oil together on a baking tray and season with salt and pepper. Add the cinnamon, coriander, chilli flakes and fennel seeds and toss to coat. Scatter with the butter . Roast, tossing every 15min or so, until the carrots are deeply browned, well past the point of tender and starting to frizzle at the edges, 30-35min.Remove from the oven and toss with the raw garlic . Serve warm or at room temperature.
