Yummm, I love the little extras you put on the carrots to enhance their flavour!
Tell me, do you have an electric or gas oven as I have tried to roast veggies in my electric oven so many times and not only does it take hours, but they turn out soft, rather than crispy, whereas I've never had a problem getting them right in a gas oven before...
I have an electric oven, I put them in a very hot oven on highest heat and cover them with a bit of oil. I watch out not to overcrowd the baking tray and that the vegetables don't stick together. Sometimes I even help myself with the ventilation, especially with vegetables that contains lots of water, like tomatoes. But I have to be careful with the ventilation not to burn it.
I like them also like you prepare it and I do it like that too sometimes. I love both versions but the taste is different.
