Roasted Carrots

These roasted carrots are a masterclass in simplicity, proving that minimal ingredients can yield exceptional flavour. By starting the cooking process at a high temperature and finishing on a lower heat, the natural sugars in the vegetables caramelise beautifully without burning. Retaining a small amount of the green tops adds a rustic, professional touch to the presentation, making this a vibrant addition to any Sunday roast or midweek meal.

As a diabetes-friendly side dish, this recipe focuses on heart-healthy olive oil rather than butter. Carrots are a fantastic source of fibre and beta-carotene, and roasting them enhances their inherent sweetness without the need for added honey or glazes. Low in salt and naturally gluten-free, these tender vegetables pair perfectly with grilled lean meats or a nut roast for a balanced, nutritious dinner.
