Recipe: Roasted Carrots and Shallots with Chermoula, from America's Test Kitchen

Roasted Carrots and Shallots with Chermoula

Since its founding in 1993, America's Test Kitchen has conducted research in experiment kitchens( and through the efforts of thousands of volunteer experiment cooks across the country) to improve and perfect recipes, which appear in its magazines and cookbooks.



ATK's recently-published cookbook "Vegetables Illustrated" contains more than 700 recipes, including this one for Roasted Carrots and Shallots with Chermoula.


They write:" We discovered that there are two keys to good browning when roasting carrots: butter and oven statu. Melting the butter firstly helps coat the carrots evenly before they go onto the cooking sheet. The butter itself helps brown the veggies while also keeping them from staying.

" Roasting the buttered carrots lower in the oven likewise helps to promote browning. The closer the hot informant is to the cooking sheet, the better the browning. The resulting carrots are tender, sweet, and nearly caramel-like on the roasted backs.

" To spice up this simple formulation, we served our carrots with an intensive, spicy green chermoula and abundance of toasted pine seeds.

"Choose carrots that are about 1½ inches in diameter at the thicker end. If your carrots are smaller, leave them whole; if they're larger, extend the roasting time slightly."
