Ingredients

5 medium carrots

3 medium parsnips

2 tablespoons olive oil

1/2 teaspoon coarse salt

1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes

Preparation

Preheat oven to 400 degrees with rack in center of the oven.

Peel carrots and parsnips and halve crosswise. Slice lengthwise into 1/4-inch-thick planks. Slice lengthwise again to make 1/4-inch-thick fries.

Place on a rimmed baking sheet and toss with oil, salt, and red pepper flakes. Spread into a single layer and roast, turning veggies once, until crisp and golden brown in places, about 20 minutes.
