Rosh Hashanah Recipes Carrot Tzimmes

ROASTED GLAZED CARROT TZIMMES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 450F/232C
• PREPARE CARROTS: If carrots are farm fresh, no need to peel them. Just give them a scrub. Otherwise, peel carrots with a vegetable peeler. Cut thicker carrots in half lengthwise so that all carrots are about the same thickness (to cook evenly).
• ROAST CARROTS: Line a small roasting pan with foil and spray with oil. Place carrots in a single layer on pan. Drizzle oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Toss around to coat evenly then lay out carrots so they don't overlap. Roast 15-20 minutes - turning once with a spatula halfway through - until partially (not fully) soft and starting to caramelize.
• MAKE MPALE GLAZE: While carrots are roasting, in a small sauce pan, stir all glaze/sauce ingredients together. Bring to boil, reduce to medium and cook for 5 minutes until somewhat thickened and reduced a bit.
• GLAZE CARROTS AND FINISH ROASTING: Remove carrots from oven. Pour glaze/sauce carrots and mix to coat evenly. Return to oven and roast for 10-20 more minutes until carrots are tender, but not mushy. Note 1.Transfer to platter or bowl. Garnish finished dish with chopped parsley and pistachios or other nuts. Drizzle on extra tablespoon of maple syrup if you like. Serve immediately.

CARROT TZIMMES

Steps:

• Heat the butter or oil in a large shallow sauté pan over medium heat. (Butter will give the richest taste, but if you observe Jewish dietary laws and want to serve this at a meat meal, or have a child allergic to dairy, olive oil works fine.) Toss the carrot "coins" in the fat to coat them. Add honey, cinnamon, orange juice and stir to combine.
• Turn the heat down to a simmer, cover the sauté pan and cook until the carrots are tender, about five minutes. Remove cover and add raisins. Turn the heat up to medium and reduce the sauce until it is a syrupy glaze about three to five more minutes. Season well with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.
