ROASTED CARROT DIP



Roasted Carrot Dip image

Surprise your guests with this unique and flavorful dip. Sweet, caramelized flavors, paired with a hint of heat from the chile oil. Add as much or as little oil as you'd like, or omit completely if you prefer. Use different fresh or dried peppers to infuse the oil. This reheats exceptionally well; in fact, I find it more flavorful the next day. Serve with wheat crackers or pita chips. Instead of parsley, you can top with crushed pistachios or pumpkin seeds.

EASY CARROT DIP WITH A BITE



Easy Carrot Dip With a Bite image

I made Petroushka's Recipe #207860 yesterday and thought -- the food processor is already dirty, so I might as well make something else. After a bit of experimentation, this was the end result. I took it to office drinks today and it got two thumbs up from everyone. I used a tin of baby carrots, but you can make this recipe harder for yourself by cooking 250 grams (8 ounces) of sliced fresh carrots until they are tender, draining them and then following the rest of the recipe. I'm sure you could double or triple this for a crowd. Use yogurt only if you need to reduce the heat.
