My dear friend, Deb Jones, brought these wonderful carrots to a dinner party we attended. The depth of flavor belies the simplicity of making them. If you have sage growing in your garden, toss a few leaves in with the carrots as they roast.

 

Yield: serves 8

 

Ingredients:

  • 16-20 large carrots
  • olive oil
  • salt, preferrably coarse

 

 

Instructions

1. Peel carrots and cut in half lengthwise.

2. Lay the carrots on a cookie sheet and drizzle with olive oil; using your hands, “toss” them around so they are lightly but evenly coated with the oil. Sprinkle with salt.

3. These can either be broiled in about 15-20 minutes or, bake them at 400° F (200° C) for about 30 minutes. The time and temperature will vary depending on the size of the carrots. They are done when you can press a fork into them easily. You can even roast them ahead of time and warm them up just before serving.
