The Piment d'Espellete gives these oven-roasted carrots a warm spice and brings out their flavor through the caramelization process.
Ingredients
  • 1 lb of carrots
  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • ½ teaspoon Piment d'Espellete
  • ½ teaspoon salt
Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 350 F.
  2. Wash and peel your carrots.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, toss the carrots with the oil, salt and piment d'espellete until coated evenly.
  4. Place the coated carrots in a shallow roasting pan and make sure the carrots are evenly dispersed and not too tightly packed in.
  5. Place in the oven and roast - for the first 25 minutes of roasting you should give the pan a healthy shake every 6-7 minutes so the carrots turn over.
  6. After 25 minutes, give the carrots another flip and turn the oven up to 400 for the last 10 minutes. This will really allow the carrots to caramelize and get delicious!
  7. Remove from the oven once they are semi-tender and enjoy with yogurt, or just as they are!
