ROASTED CARROT SOUP WITH ZA'ATAR-RUBBED ROTI

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Whisk the oil, sumac, paprika, garlic, honey and salt and pepper to taste together in a small bowl. Put the carrots in a large Dutch oven, pour in the oil and spice mixture and toss to combine. Roast the carrots, uncovered, until they can easily be pierced with a fork and are slightly charred, about 40 minutes, tossing about halfway through the cooking time.
• Transfer the Dutch oven to the stovetop and place over medium-low heat. Add the broth, tomato and buttermilk. Cook until the liquid is warmed through, 5 to 7 minutes. Taste and add more salt if needed. Blend the soup with an immersion blender until creamy and smooth. Stir in the lime juice.
• Meanwhile, heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Once thoroughly hot, add a roti and cook until blistered and brown, about 1 minute on each side. Repeat with the other rotis. Spread a teaspoon of ghee over each roti, then sprinkle each with a teaspoon of za'atar or more if desired.
• Ladle the soup into bowls. Garnish each bowl with a dollop of yogurt, a drizzle of olive oil and a sprinkle of sumac. Serve the roti alongside the soup.

ROASTED CARROT AND FETA SALAD WITH ZA'ATAR

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees. To roast carrots, place the carrots, olive oil, salt and pepper on a baking sheet, toss well and transfer to the oven. Roast, shaking occasionally until they are just beginning to brown, about 30 minutes. The carrots should be firm and not mushy. When they are cool enough to handle, cut the carrots in angled 1-inch slices. Transfer to a serving bowl. Add the remaining ingredients and toss well. Serve immediately or cover and refrigerate up to 4 hours.

ROASTED CARROT SOUP

Steps:

• Peel and cut the carrots into ½-inch rounds. On a rimmed baking sheet, toss the carrots with 2 tablespoons of the olive oil and sprinkle generously with salt. Set an oven rack 6 to 8 inches from the heat source and turn on the broiler. Broil the carrots until they brown and soften, turning them over with a spatula every 5 minutes or so; this should take 15-20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, bring the stock to a boil. Add the ginger and the sprig of thyme and simmer gently for 15 minutes.
• Dice the onion and place in a medium stockpot with the remaining olive oil. Cook the onion over medium heat, stirring frequently, until softened and lightly browned. Season. Add the garlic, and then the carrots.
• Remove the ginger and thyme from the stock, and add the stock to the pot with the onions and carrots. Bring to boil and simmer for 5 to 10 minutes, until the carrots are soft enough to purée.
• Use an immersion or standard blender to purée the mixture until smooth. If the soup seems too thick, add more stock or water and gently reheat. Add salt and pepper to taste. To serve, ladle into bowls and garnish with chopped fresh thyme.

• Arrange the carrots and garlic on a foil lined rimmed baking sheet sprayed with Pam. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast 40 minutes or until vegetables are softened and browned.
• In a large saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add the onion, leek and celery and cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes. Add the roasted carrots and garlic to the pot and cook, stirring, for 1 to 2 minutes.
• Then pour in 2 cups of the vegetable stock. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer 20 minutes. Remove from heat. Add the heavy cream.
• Working in batches in a traditional blender or using an immersion blender, puree until smooth and velvety, adding the remaining stock as needed to create desired texture. (I used all the broth.).
• Return to heat and cook just until heated through. Serve garnished with a dollop of sour cream, creme fraiche, yogurt or whipped cream.
