Instructions

Step 1

Prepare the Carrots

Start by peeling the carrots and cutting them into small sticks. Make sure they are uniform in size for even cooking.

Next, drizzle the carrots with vegetable oil and then sprinkle smoked paprika over them. Add salt and black pepper to taste. Finally, mix in the honey or sugar and the breadcrumbs for a delightful crunch.

Step 2

Bake the Carrots

Preheat your oven to 180 degrees Celsius (356 degrees Fahrenheit). Spread the prepared carrots evenly on a baking tray.

Place the tray in the oven and bake for about 30 minutes. The carrots should become tender and slightly caramelized, giving them a delicious flavor.

Step 3

Make the Yogurt Sauce

While the carrots are baking, prepare the yogurt sauce. In a mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt and crumbled feta cheese.

Grate the cucumbers finely and squeeze out excess moisture. Incorporate the grated cucumber into the yogurt mixture and mix well to ensure a creamy consistency.

Step 4

Serve the Dish

Once the carrots are done baking, remove them from the oven. Serve them on a plate with a generous dollop of the yogurt sauce underneath.

For a nice finishing touch, you can garnish with some seeds or fresh herbs of your choice. Enjoy your meal!

Servings

Serve these delightful roasted carrots on a bed of creamy yogurt sauce made with Greek yogurt and feta cheese, garnished with fresh herbs or seeds for that extra touch. 🍽️ They pair beautifully with grilled meats or as part of a vegetarian platter. For a picnic, pack the roasted carrots in a container with the sauce on the side for easy serving. Trust me, they won’t last long! 🥕✨

Equipment

Variations

Gluten-Free and Vegan Options:

If you’re looking for gluten-free options, simply replace regular breadcrumbs with gluten-free breadcrumbs or crushed nuts for that amazing crunch! For a vegan twist, substitute honey with maple syrup, and use coconut yogurt instead of Greek yogurt.

☁️🥥 Enjoy a dish that everyone can savor without compromise!

Faq

  • What type of carrots should I use for this recipe?

    Young and tender carrots are ideal, but you can use regular ones as well. Just peel and cut them into sticks!

  • Can I use other vegetables instead of carrots?

    Absolutely! This recipe works well with parsnips, zucchini, or bell peppers. Just adjust the cooking time accordingly.

  • How can I make the carrots extra crispy?

    Make sure not to overcrowd the baking sheet and use a generous amount of breadcrumbs. You can also broil them for the last few minutes for added crispiness!

  • Can I prepare the carrots in advance?

    Yes, you can pre-cut the carrots and store them in the fridge, then season and roast them just before serving.

  • What if I want to add more flavor?

    Feel free to experiment with herbs and spices! Adding garlic powder or fresh herbs like thyme or rosemary will elevate the flavor.

  • Is the sauce really necessary?

    While the sauce adds a nice creamy contrast, you can truly enjoy the roasted carrots on their own. However, the sauce enhances the dish beautifully!
