Pomegranate Roasted Carrots
- 1 pound carrots, peeled, trimmed, and halved or quartered lengthwise (halve the thin carrots, quarter the fat ones)
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- Pinch Turkish or Syrian red pepper (such as Aleppo pepper) or cayenne
- 1 teaspoon pomegranate molasses or 2 teaspoons balsamic vinegar
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro, basil, or parsley
- Preheat the oven to 425u0b0F. On a rimmed baking sheet, toss the carrots with the oil, salt, and red pepper or cayenne. Spread them out in a single layer.
- Roast for 15 minutes, stir well, and roast for 10 more minutes. Then remove from the oven and drizzle with the pomegranate molasses; toss gently to coat the carrots with molasses. Roast until the carrots are golden and soft, about 5 more minutes. Serve garnished with cilantro.
