Root veg naturally caramelises when roasted, so a drizzling of honey is just the thing to draw out their sweetness, while thyme - with its more earthy tones - blends beautifully to create a wholesome side to your Christmas centrepiece.

Trim the carrots and parsnips (no need to peel). Quarter lengthways and then chop into lengths the size of your index finger. You should be left with batons. Pop into a large mixing bowl, cover and refrigerate.

Pick the remaining thyme leaves from their stalks (discard the stalks). Add the honey, thyme, a large pinch of salt, a good grind of black pepper and a really good glug of oil to the bowl of carrots and parsnips. Toss to combine.

Spread out the veggies onto a large roasting tin (or two) and roast in your oven on the shelf below the potatoes until sticky and caramelised, 35-40 mins. Turn half-way through cooking.
