Simple Stix Carrot Fries

A serving of roasted carrot sticks arranged on a charcoal-coloured ceramic plate.

The carrots have been cut into thin uniform strips and have been roasted until they developed a beautiful caramelized colour with some darker, slightly charred edges. They’re garnished with what looks like fresh green herbs, possibly parsley or chives, sprinkled on top. The carrots have a glossy, slightly crispy appearance that suggests they were roasted with oil until tender and caramelized.

The plate sits on a light wooden surface with visible wood grain and plank lines, creating a rustic, natural presentation.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Carrot preparation in progress on a wooden cutting board. In the foreground, there’s a large stainless steel mixing bowl containing freshly cut carrot sticks that appear to be seasoned with black pepper and possibly oil, giving them a glossy appearance. The carrots are cut into uniform batons, ready for cooking.

To the left, there’s a black bowl containing carrot peelings and scraps from the preparation process, including some longer carrot shavings. A chef’s knife with a black handle is visible on the cutting board, suggesting active food preparation.

In the background, there are kitchen towels and what appears to be additional cooking equipment. The scene captures the mid-process stage of preparing carrots, likely for roasting, showing both the prepared vegetables and the kitchen waste generated during prep work.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
