A tasty Christmas side

Oven-roasted carrots and parsnips with maple syrup and rosemary. The maple syrup caramelises the vegetables and brings out their sweetness.

Note: If your carrots and parsnips are on the smaller side, you may want to halve them instead of quartering them. Roasting time is entirely dependent on the size of the vegetables, so focus on checking for doneness rather than specific time instructions.
