Honey roasted carrots

Roasted dry first, glazed at the end, so the honey caramelizes instead of burning.

Ingredients

  • 1.8 lbcarrots, halved lengthways if thick
  • 2 tbspolive oil
  • 2 tbsphoney
  • 1/4 ozfresh thyme, leaves picked
  • 1 1/2 tspsea salt
  • 1/2 tspblack pepper
  • 1 tbspcider vinegar

Method

  1. 1

    Heat the oven to 400°F. Toss the carrots with the olive oil, salt and pepper, spread them in a single layer, and roast until tender and starting to brown.

  2. 2

    Stir the honey together with the cider vinegar so it will spread thinly rather than sitting in sticky blobs.

  3. 3

    Pour the honey mixture over the carrots, turn them to coat, and return them to the oven until the glaze has thickened and darkened around them.

  4. 4

    Scatter the thyme leaves over the hot carrots and turn them once more so the herbs stick to the glaze.
