Norman – I’m so glad it worked out! They’re definitely not the same as fries, but the roasting gives it a slight crisp.

I tried this the other night with cinnamon and salt and they were awesome! Couldn’t quite replicate the crispness of fries, but me and the gf loved them anyways.

Great blog – I’ll be trying the broccoli beef recipe (and others) soon.
Thanks for lining out the steps to roast carrots. That was one of my “I can do this in my sleep” recipes and I needed it delineated for a friend who wants to try a recipe for biscuits I tweaked. The original calls for using baked sweet potatoes and I subbed in mashed roasted herbed carrots. Very savory. I usually use fresh rosemary and onion from my garden along with salt/pepper but now I will HAVE to try 5 spice! I’ll send you a link once I get the recipe fully developed if you like?

Thanks Sal, Victoria, and Monecheo! Yes, I love my Williams-Sonoma peeler.

Getting five spice in Puerto Rico does sound like a challenge. Perhaps you can try to piece it together with Chez Pim’s blend above, or through Chow’s site: http://www.chow.com/recipes/10570 . If not, cinnamon is great, too

These look so yummy!!!!!!! Love your hot green peeler as well.

Now the trick is to find Chinese 5-spice in Puerto Rico! The search is on!!

YUM, I love carrots and I love 5 spice; I never thought of putting the 2 together.

Hi Selina. Thanks for stopping by my site. Your carrot pictures look amazing by the way. I’ll need to show my daughter. It’s one of the few vegetables she’ll eat.
Banana Pudding recipe…Easy

1 small box instant vanilla pudding
1 1/2 cups cold water
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
3 cups whipped topping (like cool whip)
1 box vanilla wafers
4 medium bananas, sliced

Mix pudding, water, milk. Let stand until set. Fold in cool whip.
Layer vanilla wafers, banana slices, and pudding. Chill in fridge. Enjoy.

I must be weird because I actually just like plain old raw carrots. Maybe I’m just lazy.

I’d definitely like to try this though.
