Ingredients

2 bunches Dutch carrots scrubbed and trimmed
1 tablespoon pastrami seasoning refer to my Pastrami Seasoning recipe in the notes below if you would like to make homemade seasoning.
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
lemon cut into wedges and fresh dill to serve

Instructions

Start by preheating the oven to 220℃ ( ℉)
Place a large rimmed baking tray in the hot oven to preheat.
Toss the prepared carrots with olive oil and pastrami seasoning. Place the carrots on the preheated tray in a single layer.
Bake for 25 minutes until the carrots are crisp and golden.
Squeeze lemon juice over the carrots and serve with some fresh dill leaves.

Notes

Carrot Substitutes:
If you can’t find Dutch carrots, baby carrots work perfectly as a substitute. Cut them lengthwise for even roasting. You can also try this recipe with other root vegetables like parsnips or sweet potatoes for a similar roasting method.
Pastrami Seasoning:
For a quick version, store-bought pastrami seasoning is a good alternative.
Make Ahead:
You can prepare the carrots and seasoning in advance and store them in the fridge for up to 24 hours before roasting. This makes it an ideal holiday side dish for busy occasions like Thanksgiving or Christmas.
Storage and Reheating:
Leftover roasted carrots can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, bake at 180°C (356°F) for 15-20 minutes to restore their crisp texture. Alternatively, they can be enjoyed cold in salads or grain bowls.
Dietary Information:
This recipe is naturally gluten-free and vegan, making it a great option for those with dietary restrictions. Be sure to check your pastrami seasoning ingredients to ensure it is gluten-free if you are using store-bought.
