HONEY-ROASTED CARROTS WITH SESAME SEEDS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with foil and put in the oven to heat.
• Spread the carrots in a single layer on the hot baking sheet. Combine the olive oil and 1 tablespoon of honey in small bowl and pour over the carrots. Sprinkle with the salt and pepper. Roast the carrots start until they start to blister, 10 minutes.
• Mix together the remaining 1 tablespoon honey and the soy sauce. Drizzle the mixture over the hot carrots and toss to coat. Sprinkle with the sesame seeds and chopped parsley and serve.

GLAZED HOISIN-SESAME CARROTS

Steps:

• Add the sesame seeds to a small dry skillet over medium-high heat and toast until browned, about 2 minutes, stirring often to prevent burning. Transfer to a small dish and set aside.
• Add the carrots, 1/2 cup water, hoisin, butter and some salt and pepper to a large skillet over medium-high heat and simmer for 3 minutes. Lower the heat to medium, cover and cook until the carrots are tender when pierced easily with a fork, about 20 minutes. Raise the heat to medium-high, bring to a simmer and cook, uncovered, until the liquid is reduced to a glaze, up to 2 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat, fold in the scallions and sesame seeds and toss until all is coated in the glaze. Serve warm.
