Yield Makes about 1 1/4 cups
Number Of Ingredients 8
Steps:
- Toast sesame, mustard, and cumin seeds together in a dry 2- to 3-quart heavy saucepan over moderate heat, stirring, until fragrant and a shade or two darker, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in water, carrots, salt, cayenne, and 2 tablespoons oil and cook, covered, over low heat, stirring occasionally, until carrots are very tender, 20 to 30 minutes.
- Purée mixture in a food processor with remaining 2 tablespoons oil until carrots are smooth (spices will still be a little coarse).
Tips:
- Choose the right carrots: Select fresh, firm carrots with a deep orange color. Avoid carrots that are limp or have blemishes.
- Cut the carrots evenly: Cut the carrots into uniform strips so that they cook evenly. You can use a sharp knife or a mandoline to achieve this.
- Use a variety of spices: Don't be afraid to experiment with different spices. Common spices used for carrot strips include cumin, coriander, paprika, and chili powder.
- Roast the carrots at a high temperature: Roasting the carrots at a high temperature will help caramelize them and give them a slightly smoky flavor.
- Keep an eye on the carrots while they are roasting: The carrots should be roasted until they are tender but still have a little bit of a bite to them. Overcooked carrots will become mushy.
- Serve the carrots immediately: Roasted carrot strips are best served immediately after they are cooked. They can be served as a side dish, snack, or appetizer.
Conclusion:
Spiced carrot strips are a delicious and healthy snack or side dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are easy to make and can be customized to your own taste preferences. Experiment with different spices and seasonings to find the perfect combination for your palate. Roasted carrot strips can be served on their own as a snack or appetizer, or they can be added to salads, sandwiches, and wraps. They are also a great way to add a pop of color and flavor to your lunch box.
