Garlic and Parsley Roasted Carrots

Garlic and Parsley Roasted Carrots are a sweet and delicious side dish that you can just throw in the oven and forget about for 20 minutes whilst you make the rest of the meal. A punch of garlic and loads of fresh herbs – just what you want from a side dish.

Roasted Carrots

We are all about root vegetables during the autumn and winter months and roasting them is the best thing to do with them. It really brings out the sweetness and makes them crispy on the outside and nice and soft on the inside.

You could use a mixture of carrots, parsnips, potato and beetroot for this and it would give a wonderful mix of colours, flavours and texture.

Garlic and Parsley Roasted Carrots

The combination of garlic and parsley on these roasted carrots gives them such a light and fresh flavour. We used fresh garlic in this recipe, but you could use garlic powder for ease.

The same goes for the herbs – we used parsley, but basil, rosemary, thyme, coriander or chives would also work. Use a mixture of rosemary and thyme or basil and coriander.

Roasted Baby Carrots

We just bought regular cheap carrots and chopped them up, as baby carrots are expensive, but you could definitely use baby carrots for this recipe. Did you know that baby carrots don’t actually grow to that size?

Baby carrots are actually normal carrots that have imperfections and they are sliced and sculpted to that size and shape for your convenience. You pay a lot of money for that, so we just chop them up ourselves. But, baby carrots do mean that “ugly” carrots don’t get thrown away.

Roast Carrots

Roasted carrots are a great side dish, especially with some roasted parsnips and potatoes too, but sometimes they don’t make it to the dinner table. These carrots are so moreish that I would happily snack on them. Pass me a bowl of aioli to dip these in and I am good to go. You can never have too much garlic, right?
