Step
5 mins

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup. (5 minutes)

02

Step
10 mins

Prepare the fennel: Remove any tough outer layers. Reserve the fronds for garnish. Cut each bulb lengthwise into eighths. (10 minutes)

03

Step
5 mins

Prepare the carrots: If carrots are thicker than 3/4 inch in diameter, halve or quarter them lengthwise to ensure even cooking. (5 minutes)

04

Step

Arrange the fennel and carrots in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. (2 minutes)

05

Step
1 mins

Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle evenly with Sriracha salt. (1 minute)

06

Step
25 mins

Roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized. (25 minutes)

07

Step
2 mins

For extra browning, turn on the broiler for the last 1-2 minutes, watching carefully to prevent burning. (2 minutes)

08

Step
0 mins

Garnish with reserved fennel fronds and serve warm.

For a deeper flavor, try adding a squeeze of fresh lemon juice after roasting.
Other root vegetables like parsnips or sweet potatoes would also be delicious in this recipe.
If you don't have Sriracha salt, a pinch of red pepper flakes and sea salt works well as a substitute.
Consider adding a drizzle of balsamic glaze for added sweetness and tang.
