You can’t go wrong with this easy, colorful side, or make ahead and pack along for that perfect picnic salad. Travels well.
Heat a pot of water to boiling. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
Cut carrots into diagonal slices about 1/4-inch (1/2cm) thick. Cut beets into wedges about the same thickness as the carrots.
Par-boil carrots for 5 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain in a colander. Add beets to the water and boil for 5 minutes; drain.
Place carrots and beets without crowding in one or two large roasting pans or sheet pans. Drizzle lightly with olive oil and season generously with salt and pepper. Roast 5 minutes.
Remove from oven. Drizzle with Ginger Syrup. Roast additional 15-20 minutes or until vegetables are tender and glazed.
Meanwhile, finely grate the orange zest. Slice rind from orange and cut into segments.
Transfer vegetables to a serving bowl. Add orange zest and segments; stir gently to combine. Sprinkle with Crystallized Ginger, sesame seeds and cilantro. Serve warm or room temperature.
