ROASTED CARROTS WITH TURMERIC AND CUMIN



Roasted Carrots With Turmeric and Cumin image

These are based on Suzanne Goin's turmeric-spiced root vegetables from her wonderful new book "The A.O.C. Cookbook." I use her technique for roasting the carrots, and use the same spices she uses, but I make the dish with a little less olive oil and butter. Suzanne serves her mix of carrots, turnips, parsnips and rutabagas with Greek yogurt seasoned with makrut lime juice and zest, and mint chutney. They are also delicious on their own.

Time 40m

Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

10 medium carrots, peeled
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
1/2 teaspoon cumin seeds, lightly toasted
1/2 teaspoon coriander seeds, lightly toasted
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
1/2 teaspoon turmeric
1/2 teaspoon Aleppo pepper or mild chili powder
2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Cut the carrots in half lengthwise and crosswise. If the carrots are fat at one end, cut the fat half in half again lengthwise, so that the pieces are more or less equal in thickness. Place in a large bowl and toss with the olive oil, salt and pepper, and thyme leaves.
  • Heat a heavy baking sheet in the oven for 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from the oven and place the carrots on it in one layer. Roast for 20 to 25 minutes, stirring the carrots every 10 minutes. They should be slightly caramelized and tender.
  • While the carrots are in the oven place the cumin and coriander seeds in a mortar and pestle and grind. Add the soft butter, turmeric and Aleppo pepper or chili powder and stir with the pestle until well amalgamated. Transfer to a large pan.
  • Remove the carrots from the oven when done and add to the pan with the spice butter and the mint. Toss together, taste and adjust salt and pepper. Serve from the pan or transfer to a platter.

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

1 cup or 14-ounces dried chickpeas (garbanzo beans)
1 onion, quartered
1 bay leaf
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup pitted green olives
Handful chopped fresh parsley leaves
Zest and juice of 1 lemon
Extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling
8 slender carrots, with tops
Olive oil, for drizzling
2 teaspoons cumin seed, lightly crushed
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup or 1 stick unsalted butter
1 lemon, halved
2 tablespoons olive oil
4 (4-ounce) halibut fillets
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • For the chickpeas: Soak the chickpeas in a bowl of cold water overnight. Drain and rinse, then put in a pot with the onion and bay leaf. Cover the beans, just with water. Bring to a simmer and cook, covered, until very tender, about 45 minutes. Drain the beans, discarding the onion and bay leaf.
  • Heat the oil in a saute pan, and gently fry the garlic, 30 seconds. Add the chickpeas, salt, and pepper, to taste, to heat through. Crush a bit, here and there, with a potato masher, leaving some chickpeas whole. Remove from the heat, and stir in the olives, parsley, and lemon zest. Add lemon juice, to taste. Drizzle with extra-virgin olive oil, and serve as a base for the fish or chicken.
  • For the carrots: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Slice the carrots lengthwise, leaving a bit of green top attached, for looks. Toss on a baking sheet with the olive oil, crushed cumin seed, and salt and pepper, to taste. Roast until tender and golden-edged, about 30 minutes, depending on their size. They should be slightly crinkly and golden-edged.
  • For the halibut: Melt the butter in a saucepan, and cook until lightly brown and foaming. Add a squeeze of lemon juice, and set aside.
  • Heat the oil in a frying pan. Season the fish with salt, and pepper on both sides, place the fish in the hot pan, and fry 4 minutes. Flip, and cover to finish, 4 to 6 minutes. Serve the fish with some brown butter dribbled over.
  • For plating: Spoon a small pile of the crushed chickpeas and olives on the plate. Add the fish to the plate and top with the roasted carrots.
