3-Ingredient Roasted Carrots with Pistachio Pesto

Ingredients for 3-Ingredient Roasted Carrots with Pistachio Pesto

• 900g young carrots, trimmed, peeled, plus 150g coarsely chopped carrot tops

• 120ml plus 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided

• 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt, divided

• 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

• 60g coarsely chopped roasted, salted pistachios, divided

• 2 cups (loosely packed) basil leaves, plus more for serving

Preheat oven to 204°C. Toss carrots with 2 tablespoons oil, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoons pepper on a rimmed baking sheet. Roast, tossing occasionally, until carrots are golden brown and tender, 25–35 minutes. Let cool.

Meanwhile, pulse 30g pistachios in a food processor until a coarse paste forms. Add carrot tops and 2 cups basil. Pulse until a coarse purée forms. Add remaining 120ml oil and pulse until combined; season with remaining 1/2 teaspoons salt and 1/2 teaspoons pepper.

Transfer carrots to a platter. Drizzle with pesto, then top with basil leaves and remaining 30g pistachios.
