Dill Roasted Carrots
Our local carrots are sweet, spicy and vibrant. This is one of the simplest and loveliest ways to prepare them.
Ingredients
PreparationIngredients
- 12 organic carrots, tops still attached Add to list
- 3 tablespoons olive oil Add to list
- Salt and pepper to taste Add to list
- Juice of 1/2 lemon Add to list
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh dill Add to list
Preparation
Preheat oven to 425° F.
Trim all but 2 inches of greens from the tops of the carrots. Wash well to remove any mud that may have become lodged in the stems. Peel the carrots. If they are large, you may cut them in half lengthwise. Toss the carrots in the olive oil, salt and pepper. Roast them in the oven until they are just crisp tender, about 20 minutes for whole carrots and about 12 minutes for halves. Sprinkle with the lemon juice and dill and serve warm.
