SPICED CHAR WITH MOROCCAN CARROTS

Steps:

• Toast the almonds in a large dry skillet over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until golden, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a plate; let cool.
• Return the skillet to medium heat. Add 2 tablespoons olive oil, then add the carrots, apricots and 3/4 cup water. Reduce the heat to medium low; cover and simmer until the carrots are just tender, 8 to 10 minutes. Uncover and add the toasted almonds, scallions, olives, honey, lemon juice and 1 teaspoon ras el hanout. Increase the heat and bring to a boil. Cook, tossing occasionally, until the liquid is reduced and the carrots are glazed, about 5 minutes. Stir in the parsley.
• Meanwhile, season the fish with the remaining 1 teaspoon ras el hanout and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over high heat. Add the fish, skin-side down, and cook, flipping once, until just cooked through, 5 to 6 minutes; season with salt. Remove from the heat and let the fish rest 2 minutes in the hot skillet. Serve with the carrots.

MOROCCAN-SPICED CARROTS RECIPE

Steps:

• Make the berbere spice: In a sauté pan, toast the spices together over medium heat until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Grind all of the spices in a spice grinder until very fine and reserve.
• Make the carrots: Preheat the oven to 425º. In a large bowl, toss the baby carrots with 2 tablespoons of the olive oil and season with salt. Transfer the carrots onto a foil-lined baking sheet and roast until the carrots have begun to caramelize, 10 to 12 minutes.
• In a large sauté pan, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the carrots and sauté until the carrots turn a deep-brown caramelized color, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the sunflower seeds and sauté until lightly toasted, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the berbere spice and dill, and stir until everything is thoroughly mixed. Cook until the berbere spice begins to toast and becomes fragrant. Transfer to a serving platter and serve.
