Prep: 5 minutes minutes
Total: 35 minutes minutes
Ingredients
- 1 kg carrots peeled, trimmed, and cut on the diagonal
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 cloves garlic minced or finely grated
- 1 handful fresh parsley chopped, for serving
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 430°F, or 400°F fan, and line a large baking tray.
Cut the carrots into even diagonal pieces, halving thick pieces lengthwise.
Toss the carrots with olive oil, salt, and pepper, then spread them in one layer.
Roast for 20 minutes.
Push the carrots aside, add the garlic, and toss it with the tray juices.
Roast for 10 minutes more, toss to coat, sprinkle with parsley, and serve.
Use a hot oven and leave space between the carrots so they brown instead of steam.
Add garlic during the final 10 minutes so it becomes fragrant without burning.
