Adders Fork is a traditional British dish that dates back to the 18th century. This modern twist on the classic recipe features glazed carrots and parsnips, which are roasted in the oven until tender and caramelized. The sweet and savory glaze is made with brown sugar, butter, and vinegar, giving this side dish a unique flavor that pairs perfectly with roasted meats, stews, and casseroles. Not only is this recipe delicious, but it is also a great way to get more vegetables into your diet and support your overall health and well-being.

Instructions

1.	Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2.	In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced carrots, parsnips (or turnips), vinegar, butter, brown sugar, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all the vegetables are coated in the glaze mixture.
3.	Transfer the vegetables to a baking dish and spread them out in a single layer. Cover the dish with foil and bake for 20 minutes.
4.	Remove the foil and stir the vegetables to ensure that they are evenly coated in the glaze. Return the dish to the oven and bake for another 15-20 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and caramelized.
5.	Remove the dish from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving the glazed carrots and parsnips as a sweet and savory side dish.
