How to Make Balsamic And Brown Sugar Roasted Carrots

  1. Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F) / Gas Mark 4.
  2. Wash and peel 1 lb (450g) carrots. Cut into 1-inch thick pieces.
  3. Boil carrots in salted water for 10-15 minutes, until slightly softened but still firm to the bite. Drain well and pat completely dry with paper towels.
  4. In a large bowl, toss the carrots with 2 tablespoons olive oil, 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar, and 2 tablespoons packed brown sugar.
  5. Season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
  6. Spread carrots in a single layer on a large baking sheet.
  7. Roast for 40-45 minutes, turning halfway through, until the carrots are tender, and the sugar has caramelized to a beautiful golden brown.
