  • Total Time: 45 minutes
  • Yield: Serves 4-6

Ingredients

Units
  • 2 ½3 lbs carrots, with the leaves and tops still on
  • ¼ cup pomegranate molasses
  • 3 Tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tsp kosher salt
  • 1 tsp freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 Tbsp fresh dill sprigs
  • 2 Tbsp chopped scallions
  • ¼ cup chopped mint
  • ½ cup pomegranate seeds
  • 1 Tbsp ground sumac

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F. Peel the carrots, then cut the leaves and most of the tops off, leaving about 2 inches of the stems.
  2. Place the carrots on a large rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil, pomegranate molasses, and toss to coat. Sprinkle kosher salt and ground black pepper evenly over all of the carrots. Roast for 30-35 minutes or until caramelized and golden brown on the tops and bottoms. Don’t rush this part!
  3. Place the carrots on a platter and sprinkle generously with the ground sumac. Top with freshly chopped herbs and pomegranate seeds. Can be served warm or at room temperature with salads.
