Servings: persons

4 medium carrots, washed and peeled
4 purple or black plums (not prune plums)
1 inch piece fresh ginger, peeled and grated
2 tablespoons Extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt to taste
Freshly ground black pepper to taste
1/2 cup apple cider or juice
2 tablespoons honey
1/2 teaspoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 tablespoon butter (optional)
1/4 cup chopped toasted walnuts (optional)

1
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
2
Slice carrots into coins with a crinkle cutter or a regular chef's knife. Place in a medium mixing bowl.
3
Pit and slice plums and add slices to carrots in bowl.
4
Sprinkle grated ginger over carrots and plum slices; drizzle with olive oil. Season to taste with kosher salt and pepper; toss to coat evenly.
5
Brush a baking sheet with oil. Pour carrot mixture out onto baking sheet and spread into a single layer. Roast at 400 degrees F until fork tender, about 15 minutes, turning over once with a wide spatula.
6
While the carrots and plums are roasting, prepare the honey-apple cider reduction sauce. Place apple cider in a small saucepan and stir in honey and lemon juice. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Lower heat to medium-low and let simmer actively until the sauce is reduced by half and is somewhat syrupy, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in butter, if using.
7
Place roasted carrot mixture in a serving bowl and pour sauce over. Garnish with toasted chopped walnuts if desired. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Taste as you go and adjust the seasoning before serving.
Avoid overcrowding the pan — cook in batches if needed for the best texture.
Let the dish rest for a few minutes before serving so the flavors settle.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Swap the honey for maple syrup or agave for a slightly different but equally rich sweetness.
Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
Leave out the nuts to make it nut-free, or swap in seeds for a similar crunch.
