Ingredients

  • 1 lb heirloom carrots
  • 2 tbsp harissa paste
  • 2 tbsp wildflower honey
  • 4 oz feta cheese
  • 1/4 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp toasted cumin seeds
  • 2 tbsp fresh cilantro chopped

Instructions

1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2
Scrub the carrots clean, leaving an inch of the green stem for aesthetic flair.
3
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the harissa paste, honey, and olive oil.
4
Toss the carrots thoroughly in this spicy-sweet glaze until fully coated.
5
Arrange them in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet and roast for 20-25 minutes until tender and caramelized at the edges.
6
While the carrots roast, combine the feta, yogurt, and minced garlic in a food processor, blending until light and aerated.
7
To plate, spread a generous swoosh of the whipped feta on a serving platter, top with the warm glazed carrots, and sprinkle with toasted cumin seeds and fresh cilantro for a vibrant, aromatic finish.
