The Steps
Roasted Carrots with Diamond of California Muhamarra
Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Rinse, but don’t peel the carrots. Cut into 2” batons. Toss in a bowl with salt and pepper and olive oil and place in a roasting pan with butter.
Cook for 20 minutes, stirring every 5 minutes, until soft and lightly caramelized.
Reduce oven to 350 and place the walnuts on a baking sheet. Toast 5-10 minutes, shaking the tray often to ensure they toast evenly, and be careful not to let them burn. Remove and let cool.
Serve on a bed of muhammara and garnish with chopped walnuts, feta cheese and mint.
