How to Make Roasted Carrots With Cardamom Butter

  1. Preheat oven to 450°F (232°C). Position rack in the lower third of the oven.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1 teaspoon ground cardamom, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  3. Add 1 pound carrots, peeled and chopped into 1-inch pieces, to the bowl. Toss gently to ensure all carrots are evenly coated with the butter mixture.
  4. Spread the carrots in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet.
  5. Roast for 20-30 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the carrots are tender and golden brown. Keep an eye on them to prevent burning.
  6. Remove from oven and serve immediately. Garnish with extra cardamom (optional).
