Anleitungen
Carrots
- Preheat the oven to 200°C or 400°F. Cut of the greens, leaving an inch or two of the stems on the carrots. Wash or peel them, then cut them in half or quarters lengthwise, depending on their thickness.
Marinade
- Place the carrots on a baking tray, add the oil and season generously with salt and pepper. Wash the lemon and add half the zest to the carrots. Cut the lemon in half and squeeze on half over the tray.
- Peel and finely dice the garlic, pluck off the thyme leaves and add both to the carrots. Finally, add the honey and give everything a good toss.
Roasting
- Make sure the carrots are evenly distributed on the tray and then put them in the oven for about 25 minutes.
