Best 5 Roasted Carrots With Mint Recipes

ROASTED RAINBOW CARROTS WITH MINT GREMOLATA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
• Place carrots in a medium bowl. Drizzle the olive oil over the top and toss until coated. Add the salt and pepper and toss again. Place in the preheated oven and bake until fork-tender and lightly browned in spots, 20-25 minutes.
• While the carrots roast, make the gremolata. Place the parsley and mint on a cutting board and begin to mince. About halfway through mincing, add the lemon zest and grated garlic. Continue mincing until the herb are finely chopped.
• When the carrots are done, remove them from the oven and arrange on a platter. Top with the gremolata and serve.

ROASTED CARROTS WITH MINT LEMON DRESSING

Steps:

• Pre-heat oven to 400°F.
• Toss the carrots with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Transfer carrots to a roasting pan or sheet pan and roast in the oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until carrots are tender.
• While the carrots roast, whisk together all the mint lemon dressing ingredients (olive oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, brown sugar, mustard, salt, and mint).
• When carrots are roasted tender, transfer them to a serving platter or bowl and toss with the mint lemon dressing. Serve warm or at room temperature.

PAN-ROASTED CARROTS WITH MINT AND PARSLEY GREMOLATA

Steps:

• Place the carrots, broth and 1 teaspoon of the oil in a large skillet and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cover, reduce the heat to medium and continue to cook until the carrots are tender, 12 to 14 minutes. Uncover and cook, stirring, until the liquid has evaporated and the carrots are lightly browned, another 2 to 3 minutes. Season with 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
• Meanwhile, combine the mint, parsley, juice, zest and remaining 3 teaspoons oil in a small dish. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Toss the warm carrots with the herb mixture.

ROAST LAMB WITH MINT, CUMIN, AND ROAST CARROTS

Steps:

• Put the lamb in a roasting pan. Peel the garlic and put it into a food processor with the cumin seeds, mint leaves, and lemon juice. Add a generous grinding of salt and some black pepper. Process to a coarse paste, adding enough olive oil to make a spreadable slush, thick enough to cling to the lamb.
• Massage the roast well with the spice paste, spreading it over the skin and into the cut sides of the flesh. Set aside in a cool place (preferably not the fridge) for an hour, basting occasionally with any of the paste that has run off.
• Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Scrub the carrots and beets. If they are small, you can probably get away with a rinse. Either way, be careful with their skins, which are tender at this point in their life. Put the meat in the oven and roast for forty-five minutes to an hour, tucking the vegetables in around it after twenty minutes. The cooking time for the lamb will depend on how you like it done; forty-five minutes should give you a roast that is still pink and juicy inside. Remove from the oven and rest the meat for a good ten to fifteen minutes before carving and serving with the mint béarnaise below.
• If you want to make a gravy, transfer the meat and carrots to a warm place, put the roasting pan over medium heat, then pour in a large glass of wine or stock, or even water, and bring it to a boil. Stir with a wooden spoon, scraping away at the pan to dissolve any stuck-on meat juices. Let the gravy bubble a little, check it for seasoning (it may need salt and pepper), then keep it warm while you carve the lamb.
