What kind of carrots are best for this roasted root veggie recipe?

Thin and multi-colored carrots are ideal for this recipe; if using thicker carrots, slice them into quarters for even roasting.

What is the initial step to ensure crispy roasted vegetables?

Begin by drizzling 2-3 tablespoons of olive oil into your oven dish and placing it in the 400 degreesF oven to heat up before adding the vegetables.

Can I add other root vegetables to this dish?

While this recipe focuses on carrots, parsnips, beetroot, and red onion, you could add other root vegetables like potatoes or sweet potatoes, ensuring they are cut to a similar size as the specified ingredients for even roasting.
