Vegetable oil is often less expensive.

Set the oven to 400°F and preheat on roast.

Peel 2 pounds of carrots and cut off each end.

Cut the carrots at an angle into bite-sized pieces.

In a bowl, combine 1 tablespoon of olive oil and a few drops of sesame oil, then toss the carrots in the oil mixture.

Transfer the oiled carrots into a preheated baking pan in the oven.

In a separate bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup of Thai sweet chili sauce, 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, 1 teaspoon of minced ginger, and 2 teaspoons of minced garlic to create the glaze.

Slice green onions at an angle, saving the white parts for another dish.

Roast the carrots for about 15-20 minutes until they develop some charred spots but still have texture.

Remove the carrots from the oven and add them to a pan over medium heat with the glaze, stirring to coat.

Serve the glazed carrots as a side dish.
