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

  1. 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.

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).
