Maple and Harissa Roasted Carrots

Harissa has a deep, smokey heat that is tempered with the addition of the sweet maple syrup. The carrots are roasted and become carmelized, then sprinkled with fresh parsley. This side dish cuts through rich, winter dishes and is a great side dish to serve with meat or chicken.

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 450°.
  • Whisk garlic, oil, maple syrup, Harissa, and cumin seeds in a large bowl; season with salt and pepper.
