Vegetable Peeler
Roasting Tin
Small Saucepan
- 1 kg Carrots Peeled & Ends Trimmed
- 1 tbsp Vegetable Oil
- 2 tbsp Orange Marmalade
- 50 g Butter
- ½ tsp Fresh Thyme Leaves
- ½ tbsp Finely Chopped Parsley
Preheat an oven to 200°c/180°c fan (392°f/356°f).
Cut the carrots on an angle, into 1½" - 2" pieces then place into a roasting tin.
Drizzle over the veg oil then season the carrots with salt & pepper & stir to coat.
Roast the carrots for 25-30 minutes, until they are soft but still slightly undercooked, making sure to stir/shake the tin every 10-15 minutes.
In the meantime, place the marmalade, butter & thyme into a saucepan then cook over a low heat until melted.
Next, pour the marmalade & butter over the carrots & stir to coat. Roast for another 10-15 minutes, until nicely caramelised & tender.
To finish, sprinkle over the chopped parsley & season with salt & pepper. Serve immediately.
1. Cooking In An Aga - Cook the carrots in the roasting oven, on the bottom set of runners. Melt the glaze together on the simmering plate.
2. Carrots - I used rainbow carrots for this recipe but feel free to use regular ones. Chantenay/baby carrots would work as well.
3. Reheating - These carrots are best served immediately but any leftovers can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in a pan on the stove or on a tray in a 180°c/356°f oven (cover the carrots with foil if they start to colour too much).
