Sweet, sticky, and full of flavor, glazed carrots and turnips are the perfect complement to roast meat of any kind, although lamb comes to my mind first. This dish is also a good way to show off a favorite fancy honey, but even the plainest squeezie-bear type works well.

Cooks' Note

If you’re a fan of parsnips, feel free to throw in a couple of those as well. Simply increase the amounts of water, butter, and honey to accommodate the additional vegetable.
