Oven-Roasted Carrots and Onions image

The dry heat of the oven caramelizes the natural sugars in vegetables, which brings about an amazing depth of flavor. Baby carrots vary in size depending on time of year and where they are grown, so check for doneness after 30 to 40 minutes.

POT ROAST WITH CARAMELIZED ONIONS AND ROASTED CARROTS



Pot Roast with Caramelized Onions and Roasted Carrots image

Provided by Suzanne Tracht

Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

For pot roast
1/2 cup canola oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
5 pounds boneless short ribs, denuded (all surface fat removed; have your butcher do this)
1 cup dry sherry
4 carrots, peeled and roughly chopped
2 large onions, peeled and roughly chopped
8 stalks celery, peeled and roughly chopped
8 cloves garlic, unpeeled
1 bay leaf
About 8 cups (2 quarts) chicken stock or low-sodium chicken broth
For roasted carrots and caramelized onions
6 medium carrots (about 2 pounds) peeled, halved lengthwise, then halved horizontally
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons canola oil
3 medium Spanish onions, sliced crosswise into 1/4-inch-thick slices (about 6 to 7 cups)

Steps:

  • Prepare pot roast
  • Position racks in upper and lower thirds of oven and preheat to 350°F. Season beef liberally with salt and pepper. In large Dutch oven or heavy ovenproof pot over moderately high heat, heat oil until hot but not smoking. Add beef and sear until dark brown and crisp on both sides, about 10 minutes total. Transfer beef to large plate. Pour off oil in pan and discard. Add sherry and simmer uncovered, scraping up browned bits on bottom of pan, until reduced by half, about 5 minutes. Pour reduced sherry into heatproof liquid measuring cup.
  • In same pan, combine carrots, onions, celery, garlic, and bay leaf. Lay beef on top of vegetable mixture and pour reduced sherry over. Add enough chicken stock to cover 3/4 of meat. Cover and transfer to lower rack in oven. Roast until fork-tender, about 3 hours.
  • While beef is roasting, prepare roasted carrots and caramelized onions
  • During final hour of roasting, in large bowl, toss carrots with olive oil until well coated. Season generously with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper. Spread on baking sheet and transfer to upper rack in oven. Roast until slightly tender and browned, about 45 minutes. Transfer to large bowl and keep warm.
  • During final 30 minutes of roasting, in heavy 12-inch skillet over moderately high heat, heat canola oil until hot but not smoking. Add onions and sauté, stirring constantly, until caramelized, about 20 to 25 minutes. Season to taste with kosher salt, add to roasted carrots in large bowl, and keep warm.
  • Finish dish
  • When beef is tender, transfer to serving platter; tent with foil. Skim fat from liquid in pot. Strain liquid through fine-mesh sieve, pressing on solids with back of spoon to extract all juices, then discarding solids. Return liquid to pot, set over high heat, and bring to boil. Reduce heat to moderate and simmer, uncovered, until reduced slightly, about 5 minutes. Season juices to taste with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
  • Pour half of juices into bowl with carrots and onions; toss to combine. Pour other half of juices into gravy dish. Arrange carrots and onions around beef on serving platter and serve immediately, with extra juices on side.

BERBERE-SPICED ROASTED CARROTS, CHICKPEAS AND ONIONS



Berbere-Spiced Roasted Carrots, Chickpeas and Onions image

This is one of my favorite sheet pan meals. The protein from the chickpeas makes it a complete meal, especially with a cooling dollop of Greek yogurt on the side. You could also use this as a side to roasted chicken or fish fillets or toss with hearty, leafy greens for a substantial fall or winter salad. Feel free to substitute other canned beans or vary the root vegetables (a few parsnips are really nice!) to suit your taste.

Provided by Food Network

Categories     side-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 24

1 pound medium carrots, peeled, ends trimmed (about 4)
1 large red onion, trimmed and cut into 1-inch dice
One 15.5-ounce can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons Berbere, recipe follows
Kosher salt
5 tablespoons Berbere, recipe follows
1/4 cup red wine
2 tablespoons honey
Kosher salt
1/4 cup New Mexico chile powder
2 tablespoons sweet paprika
1 teaspoon ground cayenne
1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon mustard powder
1/2 teaspoon granulated onion
1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

Steps:

  • For the carrots and onions: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F with a rimmed baking sheet on the bottom rack. To cut the carrots, hold a carrot at a 45-degree angle on your cutting board and slice a 1-inch chunk off, rotate the carrot a quarter turn and slice off another chunk. Continue to the end of the carrot and cut all of the carrots this way. (This is a "roll" or "oblique cut," a good technique for cutting long vegetables to give lots of surface area for browning.) Toss the carrots in a large bowl with the onion, chickpeas, olive oil, berbere and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Spread on the preheated baking sheet and roast until the vegetables are tender and nicely caramelized, about 25 minutes.
  • For the awaze sauce: While the carrots and onions roast, place the berbere in a small bowl. Stir in the red wine, honey and 1 teaspoon salt. The sauce should be thick but still able to drizzle. (This makes more awaze than you'll need for the recipe, but it keeps for up to a week in the fridge in an airtight container).
  • Mound the carrots and onions on a serving platter and drizzle with a few tablespoons of awaze sauce. Serve warm.
  • Combine all the spices in a small skillet. Toast over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Let cool completely. This spice blend will keep, tightly sealed, in your pantry for several months. For longer storage, keep in the freezer. Makes about 1/2 cup.

  • Spray a 9x 13 pan with cooking spray and spread the veggies into as thin a layer as possible in the pan.
  • Cover loosely with foil and place in preheated oven for 30 minutes, remove foil and either turn or toss the veggies lightly-recover and bake for an additional 20 minutes or until veggies are almost done and starting to brown.
  • Add any remaining marinade and bake till brown and somewhat crispy on edges.
  • You can add mushrooms, brussels sprouts or other vegetables at the halfway point if you'd like more variety-be sure to toss with marinade and check that juices don't build up and stean away your roasted texture.

Categories     Carrot     Green Onion/Scallion     Parsley     Mint     Garlic     Spring     Herb

Yield Serves 4

1 teaspoon kosher salt, plus a few pinches for the herb sauce
3 teaspoons olive oil, divided
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint
1 garlic clove, grated or minced
Juice of ½ lemon, plus a squeeze
8 anchovy fillets

Tips:

  • Choose the right type of carrots: For this recipe, it's best to use firm, young carrots. Avoid using old or woody carrots, as they will not caramelize properly.
  • Cut the carrots and onions evenly: This will help them cook evenly. If the carrots and onions are cut into different sizes, some pieces may be overcooked while others are still undercooked.
  • Use a large skillet: A large skillet will allow the carrots and onions to spread out evenly and cook evenly. If you use a skillet that is too small, the carrots and onions will be crowded and will not cook properly.
  • Cook the carrots and onions over medium heat: This will allow them to caramelize slowly and develop a deep, rich flavor. If you cook the carrots and onions over high heat, they will brown too quickly and will not have time to caramelize.
  • Stir the carrots and onions frequently: This will help to prevent them from sticking to the pan and burning. Stirring also helps to distribute the heat evenly, so that the carrots and onions cook evenly.
  • Season the carrots and onions to taste: Once the carrots and onions are caramelized, season them with salt, pepper, and any other desired seasonings. You can also add a splash of vinegar or lemon juice to brighten up the flavor.

Caramelized carrots and onions are a delicious and versatile side dish that can be served with a variety of main courses. They are also a great way to add flavor and nutrition to your meals.
