This vibrant vegetarian side dish offers a refreshing twist on a classic vegetable mash. These smashed carrots are gently simmered in a bright glaze of citrusy orange juice and sweet honey, which beautifully enhances the natural sugars of the root vegetable. The addition of ground coriander provides a subtle, earthy warmth that balances the sweetness, making it an excellent accompaniment to a traditional Sunday roast or a simple midweek dinner.
Quick to prepare and naturally nutritious, this homemade recipe is a brilliant way to encourage the whole family to enjoy more seasonal vegetables. By smashing the carrots rather than puréeing them, you maintain a rustic texture that feels both comforting and sophisticated. Serve these alongside roasted chicken or a savoury nut roast for a colourful, flavourful addition to your plate.
