Roasted Carrots with Tahini and Carrot-Top Pesto image

Categories     main-dish

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 bunches carrots with greens attached, scrubbed
Extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 cup packed roughly chopped carrot-top greens
1/2 cup lightly packed flat-leaf parsley
1/2 cup toasted pistachios
1/3 cup good-quality extra-virgin olive oil, plus more as necessary
2 tablespoons minced chives
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 to 2 cloves garlic
1 small lemon, zested and juiced
1/4 cup toasted pistachios, roughly chopped
2 to 3 tablespoons tahini
Carrot-top greens, for garnish

Steps:

  • Roast the carrots: Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F.
  • Cut the tops off the carrots, leaving about 1 inch of the stems still on. (Reserve the carrot-top greens for the pesto and garnish.) Cut the larger carrots in half lengthwise and leave the smaller ones whole. Place on a large rimmed baking sheet in a flat, even layer. Drizzle with a good amount of olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast until lightly charred and tender, but not mushy or falling apart, 10 to 15 minutes. Halfway through roasting, shake the pan so they roast evenly.
  • Meanwhile, make the pesto: In a high-powered blender, combine the carrot-top greens, parsley, pistachios, olive oil, chives, salt, pepper, garlic, lemon zest and lemon juice. Blend on medium-high until combined but still chunky. If it looks too thick add 1 to 2 tablespoons oil to loosen.
  • To serve: Place the roasted carrots in a shallow bowl, dish or platter and drizzle with the pesto, chopped pistachios, tahini and carrot-top greens. Serve immediately.

  • To prepare the pesto, add the tahini, garlic, basil, parsley, salt, pepper, lemon juice, and nutritional yeast to a food processor. Pulse 10-15 times, enough to break down the herbs and roughly combine everything. Turn the motor on and drizzle in the water. You're aiming for the texture of a thick sauce—so a little thicker than a tahini dressing. Keep processing until the sauce is pretty smooth (it's fine if some of the herbs are visible). Taste and adjust lemon, salt and pepper to taste.
  • To prepare the pasta salad, bring a large pot of salted water to boil. Cook pasta according to package instructions; about 3 minutes before the end of cooking, add the zucchini and peas to the pot.
  • Drain the pasta and veggies, then transfer them to a large mixing bowl and add the cherry tomatoes. Add the pesto and mix everything well to combine. Serve.
