This was an easy, healthy, tasty, delicious,%u2026 dish. I prepared this with 1.5 kg of carrots (for 8 people) and my guests were really impressed. The combination with fresh rosemary is perfect!
I%u2019ve combined this with chicken and homemade pasta (spätzle). Thanks for posting!

These didn't crisp up as I though they might even with those last ten minutes of broiling, but they still tasted good especially with the fresh rosemary from the garden. I have no doubt this would work well with parsnips, too. PS directions do not indicate when to add the sugar. Reviewed for Veg Tag August.

I omitted the salt. The fresh rosemary is great with the carrots. So yummy. Thanks Littlemafia :) Made for Zaar Star Game
