We had some carrots and asparagus leftover, so I came up with this dish. A winner of a side dish in my opinion! Coat chopped carrots in olive oil, a teaspoon of cumin and season with pepper and salt, toss around so it’s covered well. Place in a preheated oven at 200°C. After 20 minutes drizzle some honey over the carrots and add the asparagus. Roast for another 10 minutes. Great to serve as a side dish with goats cheese crumbled over the top!
