Carrots And Yogurt Zanahorias Con Yogur Recipes

GRILLED CARROTS WITH YOGURT, CARROT-TOP OIL AND DUKKAH

Steps:

• Wash and peel the carrots and trim the tops, leaving about 1 inch/3 centimeters of the greens attached. Measure out 1 packed cup/40 grams leafy carrot tops and wash well to get rid of any grit. Squeeze out as much water as possible, and pat dry. Roughly chop the carrot tops then transfer them to a blender.
• Add the tarragon, 6 1/2 tablespoons/100 milliliters oil and a small pinch of salt. Blitz until completely smooth, scraping down the sides as needed, then transfer the mixture to a fine-mesh sieve set over a bowl. Strain the mixture, extracting as much oil as possible. (You should have about 3 tablespoons/45 milliliters.) Discard the solids.
• Meanwhile, prepare a steamer for your carrots by heating water in your steamer or setting a colander over a large pot with a few inches of simmering water. Once ready, add the carrots and steam for 10 minutes, or until you can easily pierce the thick parts with a knife but the carrots are not overly soft. Transfer the carrots to a large, shallow dish along with the remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons/20 milliliters oil, plus 1/2 teaspoon salt and a good grind of pepper. Toss to combine.
• In a large bowl, whisk the honey, vinegar and a tiny pinch of salt. Set aside.
• Make the dukkah: Add all the dukkah ingredients to a food processor and pulse a few times until the nuts are roughly chopped. (You should have 1 scant cup.)
• Heat a well-oiled grill pan over high. Working in a few batches to avoid overcrowding, grill the carrots on all sides, about 6 minutes per batch. Transfer the grilled carrots to the bowl with the honey dressing, and toss gently to combine.
• Season the yogurt with 1/4 teaspoon salt, then spread it out on a large platter. Drizzle all over with the carrot-top oil then add the carrots, arranging them artfully so they're all facing the same direction. Spoon a generous amount of dukkah on top and pass the rest.

GRILLED CARROTS WITH CUMIN-SERRANO YOGURT

Steps:

• Prepare a grill for medium-low heat. Toss carrots and spring onions on a rimmed baking sheet with 2 Tbsp. oil; season with salt. Grill (covered if possible), turning often and moving to a cooler part of the grill if they are browning too quickly, until crisp-tender, 15-20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, toast cumin in a dry small skillet over medium heat, tossing often, until slightly darkened and fragrant, about 2 minutes. Let cool; grind in spice mill or with mortar and pestle. Mix in a medium bowl with chopped serrano, yogurt, lime juice, chopped mint, and remaining 2 Tbsp. oil; season with salt.
• Spoon yogurt onto a platter; arrange carrots and onions over. Top with mint leaves and sliced chile.
• Do Ahead
• Yogurt can be made 2 days ahead. Cover and chill.
