Ingredients
- 1 pound carrots, peeled and cut into 1/4-inch slices on the diagonal
- 1 pound parsnips, peeled and cut into 1/4-inch slices on the diagonal
- 3 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons toasted cumin seeds
- 3 tablespoons honey
- 1/2 cup olive oil
- 1/3 cup water
- 1/2 tablespoon freshly ground black pepper
- Juice of 2 limes
- 1/2 bunch mint, leaves only, chopped
Directions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. In a medium baking dish, combine the carrots, parsnips, garlic, cumin seeds, honey, olive oil, water, salt and pepper. Toss well. Cover and bake for 20 minutes.

This is delicious, however I agree with rjbrewer that you don't need the water. I would omit it entirely. Mine didn't begin to carmelize until they had baked for an hour (I live at high altitude.

This is an excellent dish and has made several appearances at our Thanksgiving table. The one criticism I have is the amount of water called for in the recipe. I used only a scant two or three tablespoons. Any more and you'll have a soup and won't get the carmalization you're looking for.
