Instructions

1. Preheat oven – Preheat oven to 375 degrees f/190 degrees c and have ready a large baking tray.
2. Make honey butter – In a small saucepan set over medium heat, add the butter. Bring it to a sizzle, about one minute. Add the garlic and honey and give a good stir. Bring to a boil and remove from heat.
3. Roast carrots – Arrange the carrots on the baking tray and pour over the honey garlic butter. Sprinkle over salt and pepper. Roast for about 20 – 25 minutes or until soft.
4. Add parmesan cheese – Remove from oven and evenly sprinkle over parmesan cheese. Roast for a further 2 – 3 minutes or until the parmesan cheese melts.
5. Garnish and serve – Remove from oven and garnish with fresh parsley and extra parmesan cheese if desired. Serve immediately.

Recipe Tips

• Cut carrots to equal size – Make sure to cut the carrots to similar sizes to ensure they cook evenly.
• Grate your own cheese – It’s best to use fresh grated parmesan cheese for the best flavour.
• Use a non stick baking pan – To ensure the carrots don’t stick to the pan, it’s best to use a non stick pan.
• Remove from baking pan immediately – As soon as you take the carrots out of the oven, remove the carrots from the baking pan. The cheese will harden as it cools as the carrots may stick to the pan.

Substitutions

• Carrots – I used large carrots and cut them in to smaller pieces. You could use baby carrots, heirloom carrots or even butternut squash, parsnips or sweet potatoes.
• Honey – Alternatively, you could use brown sugar, raw sugar, molasses, maple syrup, agave syrup, corn syrup or even date paste.
