Make roasted carrots with dukkah and yoghurt when you want a simple vegetable side that feels polished, generous and restaurant-worthy without becoming complicated.
lamb, chicken, couscous, lentils and vegetarian feasts
Prepare the carrots evenly and pat dry if roasting, grilling or charring. Even shapes are more important than perfect shapes.
Toss or dress with the main flavour base: dukkah, honey, cumin, lemon, yoghurt and mint. Season in layers so the vegetables taste good all the way through.
Cook using the roast and dress method until the vegetables are caramelised carrots with creamy yoghurt and crunchy spice. Keep the heat confident and avoid overcrowding.
Add final herbs, citrus, vinegar, glaze, cheese, yoghurt, crumbs or butter just before serving so the flavour stays bright.
Serve hot, warm or freshly dressed with lamb, chicken, couscous, lentils and vegetarian feasts. Taste once more for salt, acidity and richness before plating.
Cool quickly, cover and refrigerate for up to 2 days. Reheat gently in a pan or hot oven; crisp roasted sides are best refreshed uncovered. Cold dressed sides are best eaten the same day.
Trim and cut the vegetables earlier the same day. Blanch firm green vegetables if useful, then finish with fat, glaze, herbs or sauce just before serving.
Not ideal for most finished vegetable sides because freezing softens texture. Braised cabbage and purées freeze better than crisp greens, salads or dressed vegetables.
