These sweet and spicy roasted carrots make a fabulous side dish, but they’re also delicious all on their own. In fact, on those rare (and dare I say treasured) nights when I’m on my own for dinner and don’t feel like fussing with a full meal, I’ll make them for myself as a main course. They’re like vegetable candy, and I can easily polish off the entire pan myself.

Am west Indian so i love curry, i like the way it taste with the carrots and honey. Delicious.
I tried these last night and they were fantastic. I usually keep the skins on carrots because I thought the skins were the healthiest part. Is there a reason you take the skins off?
Thank you for saying to cut the carrots into thirds. I cut one carrot too thin and those pieces were over cooked.
Hi Dana! You don’t have to peel carrots, especially if they are organic and grown without pesticides. I do it mostly out of habit and also because they look prettier.
I loved this recipe because I am like you I could eat the entire thing for dinner with nothing else. But sometimes I cut the curry a bit.
So simple and delicious!
Delicioussssss!
I am cooking these at this very moment They look and smell wonderful
Absolutely amazing taste & incredibly easy to make. You’re right, can be eaten as a main 🙂
Thanks Jenn!
I’m not a huge fan of cooked carrots, but decided to try this because I had the ingredients on hand. They turned out great and I would eat them again. The only thing I would change is to cut the carrots differently so that there is more surface area in contact with the pan, which would help brown them a bit more.
Loved this recipe and served with some nicely barbecued chicken. Super simple and tasty. I’m thinking I’m going to roast the carrots out on the grill next time. Keep the same great flavor and keep the curry smell down in the house.
I FINALLY made these! Have had them on my bucket list since I got the recipe in my inbox. AMAZING!!!! How can 5 ingredients when combined result is such an exceptional sensory experience. Thank you for another wonderful recipe! (It is also quick!)
