These Parmesan Roasted Carrot Fries are a delicious and healthy twist on traditional fries. Made with fresh carrots, lightly tossed in oil, and coated with savory Parmesan cheese, then roasted to tender perfection with a slight char, they make a perfect side dish or snack. Simple to prepare and quick to cook, they’re a flavorful way to enjoy vegetables with a crispy, cheesy finish.

Ingredients

Scale

Carrot Fries

  • 2 pounds carrots, peeled and sliced into 1/4 inch thick fries
  • 1 tablespoon oil
  • Salt, to taste
  • Pepper, to taste
  • 1/2 cup Parmigiano Reggiano (Parmesan cheese), grated

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Carrots: Peel the carrots and slice them into 1/4 inch thick fries. Using a mandolin slicer can make this step easier and ensure even thickness.
  2. Toss with Oil and Seasoning: In a large bowl, gently toss the carrot fries with 1 tablespoon of oil, salt, and pepper to taste until evenly coated.
  3. Add Parmesan: Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over the carrots and mix well to coat them thoroughly.
  4. Arrange on Baking Sheet: Spread the coated carrot fries out in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with a silicone mat or parchment paper.
  5. Roast the Fries: Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Roast the carrots for 16-20 minutes until they are tender and slightly charred, stirring or turning them halfway through cooking to ensure even roasting.
  6. Serve: Optionally garnish with fresh chopped parsley and serve with your choice of dip, such as chipotle mayo, for an extra flavor boost.

Notes

  • Using a mandolin slicer helps achieve uniform carrot sticks for even cooking.
  • For extra flavor, add 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder to the salt and pepper seasoning.
  • These fries pair wonderfully with a chipotle mayo dip made by blending 1/2 cup mayo with 1-2 chipotle chilies in adobo sauce and a splash of lime juice.
  • Garnish with fresh parsley for a bright, herbal touch.
  • These carrot fries can also be cooked in an air fryer for a quicker alternative.
