12 carrots
3 tablespoons good olive oil
1 1/4 teaspoons kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons minced fresh dill or flat-leaf parsley
Preheat the oven to 400°F.
Slice the carrots diagonally into 1 1/2-inch-thick slices.
(The carrots will shrink while cooking, so make the slices big.)
Toss them in a bowl with the olive oil, salt, and pepper. Place on a
baking sheet in one layer and roast in the oven for 20 minutes.
Toss the carrots with minced dill or parsley, season to taste, and serve.
