Method

1. Pre-heat oven to 200C/400F/Fan 180C/Gas Mark 6. Line a large baking tray with baking parchment. Peel the carrots, cut in half and then in half through the middle, to make thick baton shapes. Put in a large bowl.
2. Halve and deseed the pepper, and cut into large chunks. Peel the onion and cut into chunky wedges. Toss into the carrot along with the oil and mix well.
3. Spread the vegetables evenly over the baking tray. Sprinkle with cumin seeds and plenty of seasoning. Bake in the oven for 30 mins until tender and lightly golden. Leave to cool for 20 mins. Drain and put in a heat proof bowl.
