Serves
2-4 as a side dish, depending on how big your carrot bunch is
Author Notes
This simple side dish will liven up any meal. A drizzle of honey prior to roasting will help bring out the sweetness of the carrots, and the sprinkling of dukkah to finish takes it to a whole new level – undoubtedly, these carrots will be the first to go off the table.
Feel free to use plain old orange carrots, but make sure they’re small and do get the ones with the tops attached, leaving the carrots whole with a little green on the top does wonders for your presentation. —boymeetsgirlmeetsfood
