ROASTED BEETS AND CARROTS
Caramelized and delicious. Use organic whole carrots for better true-carrot flavor. I use turbinado sugar because the crystals are bigger and they dissolve more slowly, which seems to lead to a better caramelized crust. I sometimes do a mix of half golden beets and half red beets -- then when I serve them, I fan the veggies out on the platter in a rainbow: golden beets, carrots, then red beets. Pretty!

ROASTED CARROTS AND BEETS WITH THE JUICIEST PORK CHOPS
Steps:
- Carrots and beets are particularly good when roasted as it brings out their natural sugars. The best advice I can give you is about flavoring them. A few smashed garlic cloves, a woody herb like rosemary, thyme, sage or bay, and a splash of vinegar, or squeezed lemon or orange juice, can accentuate their natural flavor.
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Put the carrots into a large pot and the beets into another, and add enough water to cover them. Season with salt and bring to a boil. Cook for 15 to 20 minutes until just tender, then drain and place in separate bowls. Peel the beets, and cut any larger carrots and beets in half or into quarters. Smaller ones can stay whole.
- Now add the flavorings while the vegetables are still hot. Toss the carrots with half the smashed garlic and a glug of olive oil, then lightly season. Add the orange juice and the thyme leaves and toss again. Mix the beets with the rest of the garlic, the rosemary, balsamic vinegar and salt and pepper. You can now put the vegetables either into separate ovenproof dishes, or together on a large roasting pan with the carrots in 1 half of the pan and the beets in the other. Place in the middle of the preheated oven and roast for around 1/2 hour or until golden.
- While the carrots and beets are cooking, lay the chops on a board and score through the skin and the streaky-looking part of the meat. This will give you lovely crackling.
- Firmly press a sage leaf onto the eye meat on both sides of each chop. Season with salt and pepper.
- When the vegetables start to color, heat a large ovenproof frying pan or small roasting pan on the burner, add a good glug of olive oil and put in the chops. As soon as you've got nice color on 1 side, turn the chops over and place the pan in the oven for 10 minutes, or until the chops are crisp on the outside and just cooked through and juicy in the middle. Remove the chops to a warmed plate. Pour most of the fat out of the pan and add a squeeze of lemon juice to it. Stir and scrape the lovely sticky bits off the bottom and drizzle all over the chops. Remove the carrots and beets from the oven - they should be nice and sticky by now. Serve them with the chops and a glass of wine.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400º F.
- Place the beets in a small ovenproof pan with a little water; cover tightly with foil. Roast for 50 minutes to 1 hour, depending on the size of the beets. Test with a fork for tenderness. Cool, then cut off the stem ends and slip off the skins. Cut in half or in bite-size pieces; keep them warm until carrots are roasted.
- Carrots will cook in less time than the beets. In a separate baking pan, coat them with the olive oil and roast for 15 to 25 minutes, depending on their size, until fork-tender. Combine beets and carrots with melted butter and juice; add salt and pepper and sprinkle with chopped dill.

Tips:
- Choose the right beets and carrots: Look for beets that are small to medium in size, firm, and have smooth skin. Choose carrots that are also small to medium in size, firm, and have no blemishes.
- Roast the vegetables at a high temperature: This will help to caramelize the natural sugars in the beets and carrots and give them a delicious flavor.
- Use parchment paper or aluminum foil to line the baking sheet: This will help to prevent the vegetables from sticking to the pan and make cleanup easier.
- Toss the vegetables in olive oil and seasonings before roasting: This will help to coat the vegetables and prevent them from drying out.
- Roast the vegetables until they are tender: The beets should be tender enough to pierce with a fork, and the carrots should be slightly tender but still have a little bit of crunch.
- Serve the vegetables immediately: Roasted beets and carrots are best served hot, but they can also be served cold or at room temperature.
