Looking for a side dish that’s anything but boring? These glazed baby carrots are the perfect balance of sweet, spicy, and creamy – finished with a crunch of toasted seeds for that extra texture. Gently caramelised in a balsamic-honey glaze and served over a dollop of harissa-spiked cream (or a dairy-free cashew twist), this dish is both simple and stunning. Whether you’re serving it at brunch or as part of a cozy dinner spread, it’s a flavour-packed way to make veggies the star of the plate.
