Charred Carrots With Apple Brown-Butter Vinaigrette

• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
• 1 teaspoon salt, divided
• 1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
• 1/2 teaspoon ground fennel
• 1 pound medium carrots, washed and scrubbed
• 3 tablespoons butter
• 2 tablespoons pine nuts
• 2 scallion bottoms, white part only, sliced into 1/8-inch-thick rounds
• 2 sprigs thyme, picked
• 1/4 teaspoon chili flakes
• 1 large crisp eating apple, cut into 1/2-inch dice
• 3 tablespoons lemon juice

1. Preheat your oven to 300u0b0 F. In a 12-inch cast-iron skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. In a small bowl, mix 1/2 teaspoon salt, coriander, and fennel. Toss the mixture together with the carrots. Place the carrots in a single layer in your preheated pan and begin charring them on all sides. This will take about 8 minutes.
2. Transfer the pan to your oven and roast for 50 minutes. The carrots should be a dark caramelized brown on all sides and should pierce easily with a knife when they're done.
3. Just before you bring the carrots out of the oven, heat the butter in an 8- to 10- inch saute pan till it starts to take on a little color. Add the pine nuts, scallions, thyme, and chili flakes and continue cooking till the pine nuts are toasted and the butter is brown and nutty-smelling. Add the apples, remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt, and the lemon juice and cook an additional 45 seconds. The apples will absorb most of the liquid, but you should have a tablespoon or two of vinaigrette visible in the pan.
4. Spoon the apples, pine nuts, and all their liquid over the carrots. Serve warm.
