Method

  • step 1

    Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Cut carrots into ‘fries’, about 1cm thick, and mix with cornflour and a little black pepper. Toss with vegetable oil, spread in a single layer on a baking tray lined with parchment, and bake for 40-45 mins, turning halfway. Mix a little salt with tarragon and toss through the cooked fries.

Really tasty. I didn’t have cornflour so I used semolina - worked very well. Will definitely make these again.

Had these as a snack with a slice of wholemeal bread - it was amazing.

This is going to be something I make regularly

Quite tasty, an interesting twist for a healthier side dish. I thought I'd try it out on my kids... The three year old wasn't convinced at all (but then she doesn't like raw carrot batons), however the six year old boy asked me to make them again tomorrow! Let's face it, they are never going to be…

Tried a question but it disappeared! Why the cornflour? What difference does it make?

Same as why you'd use it if roasting potatoes, I'd guess - helps to crisp them up.

Why the cornflour?

Well, this is quite late, but I think it's to turn it into a batter, which makes the fries crispy. Kind of like how you cover e.g. chicken in flour and egg to give it a crust.
