Instructions

Step 1

Prepare the Carrots

Start by peeling the carrots and cutting them into small sticks.

It's important to make them uniform in size for even cooking.

Step 2

Season and Roast the Carrots

Drizzle the carrot sticks with vegetable oil and sprinkle with smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper.

Add the honey and breadcrumbs, ensuring the carrots are well coated.

Place the seasoned carrots on a baking tray and roast in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for 30 minutes or until tender and golden.

Step 3

Prepare the Yogurt Sauce

While the carrots are roasting, mix together the Greek yogurt and crumbled feta cheese in a bowl.

Grate the cucumbers finely, squeeze out the excess water, and then fold them into the yogurt mixture.

Step 4

Serve the Dish

Once the carrots are done, place them on a serving dish over a bed of the yogurt sauce.

For a finishing touch, sprinkle with seeds or garnish with fresh herbs of your choice.

Faq

  • How do I ensure my roasted carrots get crispy?

    Make sure to cut the carrots into uniform sizes and avoid overcrowding the baking sheet. This allows hot air to circulate around them, ensuring they crisp up perfectly!

  • Can I use different vegetables with this recipe?

    Absolutely! This recipe works well with other root vegetables, like parsnips or sweet potatoes. Adjust the cooking time if necessary based on the vegetable you choose.

  • What if the carrots are too sweet for my taste?

    If you find the carrots are a bit sweet, feel free to balance it out with extra salt or acidic flavors like lemon juice served alongside the dish!

  • How can I make the yogurt sauce more flavorful?

    Consider adding garlic, dill, or lemon zest to the yogurt sauce to enhance its flavor. Fresh herbs can make a huge difference!

  • Is it okay to make this dish ahead of time?

    Yes, you can roast the carrots a few hours ahead and reheat them in the oven right before serving to regain some crispness!

  • Can I freeze the roasted carrots?

    We don't recommend freezing them after roasting, as they'll lose their texture. It’s best to enjoy them fresh!
