CUMIN-ROASTED CARROTS WITH GREEK YOGURT

Steps:

• 1. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Place the carrots on a baking sheet and drizzle with the oil. Sprinkle with the cumin and salt and toss well. Spread out in a single layer on the baking sheet and roast until tender, about 40 minutes, shaking pan halfway through the cooking time.

ROASTED CARROTS WITH TURMERIC AND CUMIN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Cut the carrots in half lengthwise and crosswise. If the carrots are fat at one end, cut the fat half in half again lengthwise, so that the pieces are more or less equal in thickness. Place in a large bowl and toss with the olive oil, salt and pepper, and thyme leaves.
• Heat a heavy baking sheet in the oven for 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from the oven and place the carrots on it in one layer. Roast for 20 to 25 minutes, stirring the carrots every 10 minutes. They should be slightly caramelized and tender.
• While the carrots are in the oven place the cumin and coriander seeds in a mortar and pestle and grind. Add the soft butter, turmeric and Aleppo pepper or chili powder and stir with the pestle until well amalgamated. Transfer to a large pan.
• Remove the carrots from the oven when done and add to the pan with the spice butter and the mint. Toss together, taste and adjust salt and pepper. Serve from the pan or transfer to a platter.
