Put the carrots, onion and cilantro stems in a roasting pan. Sprinkle with the spice mix. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons of the oil and turn to coat. Roast for 35-40 minutes, turning twice during cooking, until the carrots are tender. Remove from the oven and drizzle with the honey. Cover and set aside for 10 minutes to steam and soften, making it easier to blend.
