[net.cooks] baked carrots?

doug (08/06/82)

can you bake carrots so they come out cooked and soft?  I tried to
bake some with chicken tonight - for about an hour - but they didn't
come out cooked!  I had anticipated soft, baked carrots where it
took on the flavor of the chicken and gave flavor to the chicken.

	I would have thought that carrots can be baked the same as any other
root vegetable, so I am wondering what went wrong.  I do know that they cook
very quickly if stir fried in a reasonably hot wok.  Perhaps they could be
wrapped in foil with a little butter for baking.  Anyone ever do other roots
besides potatoes in the oven by themselves?
