MOROCCAN CARROTS

Steps:

• 1. Using a mandoline slicer or very sharp knife, very thinly slice the carrots on the diagonal about 1/16 inch thick and put them in a bowl.
• 2. Put the cumin, paprika, cinnamon and cayenne in a small dry skillet over medium-low heat. Cook, stirring frequently, until the spices are fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the oil and swirl the pan to mix. Add the lemon juice and swirl the pan; when the mixture begins to bubble, add the garlic and cook, swirling the pan, for 15 to 20 seconds, until the dressing is very hot. Pour the hot dressing over the carrots and toss with a large rubber spatula until the carrots are evenly coated and have absorbed the dressing. Add the parsley, season with salt and pepper, and toss until combined.
• 3. Serve at room temperature, with harissa, or refrigerate until ready to serve.

In a small heavy skillet stir together coriander seeds, cumin, and oil and cook over moderate heat until fragrant, about 1 minute.
• In a bowl toss together carrots, raisin mixture, spices, cilantro, pepper, and salt to taste.

MOROCCAN-SPICED CARROTS RECIPE

Steps:

• 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.
• In a large sauté pan, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the carrots and sauté until the carrots turn a deep-brown caramelized color, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the sunflower seeds and sauté until lightly toasted, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the berbere spice and dill, and stir until everything is thoroughly mixed. Cook until the berbere spice begins to toast and becomes fragrant. Transfer to a serving platter and serve.
