Time 1h5m

Yield 2 1/2 cups, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 lbs carrots, peeled and sliced 1/4 inch thick (about 12)
salt
pepper
2 garlic cloves, minced
3/4 teaspoon ground coriander
3/4 teaspoon ground cumin
3/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1/8 teaspoon chili powder
1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/3 cup water
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
1 tablespoon minced fresh cilantro

Steps:

  • Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the carrots and 1/2 teaspoon salt and cook until they begin to soften, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in the garlic, coriander, cumin, ginger, chili powder and cinnamon and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the water and bring to a simmer. Cover, reduce the heat to low, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the carrots are tender, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Off the heat, mash the carrots with a potato masher, leaving a few coarse pieces for texture. Stir in the remaining 2 tablespoons oil and vinegar. Transfer to a bowl, cover, and refrigerate until the dip is chilled, about 30 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste and sprinkle with the cilantro before serving. The dip can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 2 days. Season with additional vinegar, salt and pepper to taste and sprinkle with the cilantro before serving.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my carrot dip turned out bland. Maybe I didn't add enough cumin or paprika.

This carrot dip is a great make-ahead snack or appetizer. I like to make it the day before a party so that the flavors have time to meld.
