• Make the berbere spice: In a sauté pan, toast the spices together over medium heat until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Grind all of the spices in a spice grinder until very fine and reserve.
• Make the carrots: Preheat the oven to 425º. In a large bowl, toss the baby carrots with 2 tablespoons of the olive oil and season with salt. Transfer the carrots onto a foil-lined baking sheet and roast until the carrots have begun to caramelize, 10 to 12 minutes.
