Recipe video above. In my opinion, there is only one way to roast carrots - on a high temperature so they brown beautifully in the same time it cooks for the inside to become sweet and tender. Cooked this way, you need nothing more than salt and pepper, though a hit of garlic never hurts!Extra flavo
