GLAZED GRILLED CARROTS



Glazed Grilled Carrots image

These glazed carrots, from Karen and Quinn Hatfield of the Los Angeles restaurant Odys and Penelope, are caramelized and sweetened from a quick hot turn on the grill, then tossed in a salty dressing of soy sauce, balsamic vinegar, garlic and ginger. Turning the carrots often and moving them around on the grill keeps them from burning. And if your carrots are burning but aren't yet cooked through, transfer them to a baking sheet and finish cooking in a 400-degree oven.

Provided by Jeff Gordinier

Categories     vegetables, side dish

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon dark brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon finely chopped fresh rosemary
1/2 clove garlic, cut into paper-thin slices
1 teaspoon freshly grated ginger
2 tablespoons vegetable oil, plus more for the carrots
10 medium carrots, peeled, trimmed and cut in half lengthwise
Salt
1 green onion, thinly sliced

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, whisk together vinegar, soy sauce, sugar, rosemary, garlic and ginger until combined. Whisk in 2 tablespoons oil so dressing emulsifies; set aside.
  • Heat grill to low. Coat carrots with oil and season with salt. Grill carrots, covered, turning as needed to prevent burning, until nicely charred and fork tender, 20 to 25 minutes.
  • When carrots come off the grill, toss them immediately in the prepared dressing. Once they're coated, use tongs to transfer the carrots to a serving platter and garnish with green onion. Drizzle a few spoonfuls of the remaining dressing over the top.

Tips:

  • Choose the right carrots: For this recipe, it's best to use fresh, young carrots. Avoid using large, thick carrots, as they will take longer to cook and may not be as tender.
  • Peel the carrots evenly: This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from becoming tough.
  • Use a variety of spices: The combination of cumin, coriander, and fennel seeds gives this dish a complex flavor. You can also add other spices, such as cardamom, cloves, or nutmeg, to taste.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When roasting the carrots, make sure to spread them out in a single layer. This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from steaming.
  • Roast the carrots until tender: The carrots should be tender when pierced with a fork, but not so soft that they fall apart.
  • Make the glaze ahead of time: The glaze can be made up to 3 days in advance. Simply store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
  • Serve the carrots immediately: The carrots are best served hot, but they can also be served at room temperature.

Conclusion:

These glazed carrots with whole spices and rosemary are a delicious and easy side dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. The carrots are roasted until tender and then glazed with a sweet and tangy glaze. The whole spices and rosemary add a complex flavor that makes this dish truly special. Whether you're serving it for a weeknight dinner or a special occasion, these carrots are sure to be a hit.
