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.

I agree with Jenn. I could eat all of these
for dinner. They are that good and I am
not a big fan of cooked carrots. Made these
exactly as written. Fast and easy.
HI jenn, just love this recipe. Your website is awesome & easy to follow. My family & friends are grateful that I found you! I would normally use parchment paper for oven. What is the difference? Are they used the same or have different functions? Thanks:)
Glad you like the site! It’s perfectly fine to use parchment here. Hope you enjoy the carrots!
The curry really works great with roasted carrots; love this recipe!
Loved this recipe when I served a butter chicken recipe!! So simple and fast, using ingredients that pretty much everyone has on hand. Definitely a go to when I’m having East Indian food.
I made this today as an accompaniment for the easy short ribs. I reduced the curry in this recipe from 1 T to 1 tsp. It came through nicely without competing with the bbq sauce. The vegetable-avoiders in my family ate more of the carrots from your sweet & spicy chicken 2 weeks ago, but I’ll definitely make this again for myself!
These are delicious!! My husband thinks I’m printing your new cookbook in my office!! I’ve printed so many of your recipes!! Can you roast 2 pans at once? I also have the convection on my oven if that would work on this?? We love your recipes and my son will try anything I make, as long as it’s once of your recipes! Thanks.
🙂 So glad your family likes the recipes! Yes, you can use two pans of these at once. And the convection mode would work here. When using the convection setting, the rule of thumb is to reduce temp by 25°F. Hope everyone enjoys!
Hi Jenn.
Can I make this for a large crowd as a side dish? The crowd would be about 20 people. I would be cooking them around noon and serving them around 5 pm so they’d have to be reheated….??
Yes, definitely Susan. They reheat beautifully.
I am usually not a fan of cooked carrots
but am always looking for different recipes for the vegetarians in my family. I made
half the recipe to test it but next time will
probably double. Delicious! Made exactly
as written and everyone loved these quick
and easy carrots. (Even me)
absolutely healthy and delicious!!! made this for Thanksgiving!
Jen, you are an inspiration, as your website is “my cookbook” every week;
Thank you!
These roasted, curried carrots are terrific!
