Ingredients

  • 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

Instructions

  • 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.

Notes

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.
