Did you know?

Beta-carotene, found in many orange vegetables such as carrots, is a fat-soIuble vitamin, which means that it has to be consumed together with a little bit of fat in order for it to be absorbed and utilized by the body. Therefore, the essential fatty acids provided by the olive oil in this recipe are an ideal accompaniment for carrots.
