Serves 1–2
5 carrots, peeled
salt
1 Tbsp + 2 tsp olive oil
pepper
1/4 tsp Cajun spice
chili flakes
1/4 tsp chili powder
freshly chopped parsley
for garnish
1/4 tsp paprika
1 free-range egg
Preheat the oven to 400ºF.
Cut the carrots into French fry shapes (usually lengthways in
quarters and then in half, but this could vary depending on
the size of the carrots).
Bring a pot of salted water to the boil. Cook the carrots for 3
minutes, then drain.
Toss the carrots in 1 tablespoon of olive oil, along with the
spices and a pinch of salt and pepper.
Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until slightly caramelized.
To fry the egg, heat 2 teaspoons of olive oil in a frying pan.
When the oil is starting to shimmer, crack the egg into the oil.
Cook until golden around the edges.
Serve the carrots with the egg, and top with some fresh
parsley and a pinch of chili flakes.
