A huge ‘must have’ with our roast dinners is Honey Roast Parsnips and Carrots. In recent months I have been thinking about adding different ingredients to our roast dinners. I had been meaning to try BBQ Roast Chicken. So I decided to add a different sauce to the raw chicken.
While I was adding the sauce to the chicken I spotted the cumin seeds in the cupboard. I felt this would be a great addition for the honey roast parsnips and carrots. I love adding different ingredients to my dishes and I, normally, always enjoy the end result.
This was one occasion I really enjoyed the finale. The whole meal was packed full of flavour and my mouth was alive with taste during this dinner. It’s one I will be making again. If you love lots of flavour in your meals then this is one for your recipe books.

Cumin Infused Honey Roast Parsnips and Carrots was a huge hit in this house. We invited my mum over for Sunday lunch. I was a bit worried as mum is not a fan of spicy foods. The Cumin Infused Parsnips and Carrots she thoroughly enjoy and so did the rest of my family too. Plus any leftovers can be put into a soup. Click here for the recipe. However you decide to eat this dish, as always, enjoy. Thank you xxx
