Servings: 4
- 4 cup carrots peeled and cut into 1 inch pieces on the diagonal
- 1.5 pounds baby gold potatoes halved
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp dried rosemary
- salt and pepper
1. Preheat the oven to 390F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper - use two if needed to stop the vegetables overcrowding. You want air to be able to get around them in the oven so they crisp up properly.
2. Toss the vegetables with the olive oil, garlic powder, dried rosemary and a generous amount of salt and pepper. Spread out in a single layer.
3. Roast for 40 minutes, tossing with a spatula halfway so the vegetables can crisp all over. If you’re using two baking sheets, rotate their position in the oven when you do this.
Cutting the carrots - It is important to cut the carrots on the diagonal as they take longer to cook than the potatoes, so they need more surface area to cook evenly.
Using parchment paper - Don’t be tempted to use foil instead of parchment paper, as the vegetable will stick and won’t crisp up properly.
