Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 pound young carrots, scrubbed
2 spring onions, split lengthwise in half (discard any dry or discolored tops)
1 teaspoon kosher salt, plus a few pinches for the herb sauce
3 teaspoons olive oil, divided
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint
1 garlic clove, grated or minced
Juice of ½ lemon, plus a squeeze
8 anchovy fillets
1 cup croutons
2 teaspoons ground sumac

Steps:

  • Make the covered-pot carrots and spring onions
  • Preheat the oven to 300°F, with a rack in the middle. Toss the carrots and onions with 1 teaspoon kosher salt and 1 teaspoon olive oil. Lay them out in a single layer in a Dutch oven or other heavy pot with a lid. Cover the pot with foil and seal by placing the lid on top of the foil. Transfer the pot to the oven and cook the vegetables, first checking after 30 minutes for doneness by poking one with a metal skewer. When the vegetables are done, the skewer will slide in and out easily; as soon as they are tender, remove them to a plate to cool. Cut the cooled carrots lengthwise in half.
  • Make the herb sauce
  • Mix together the remaining two teaspoons of oil, parsley, mint, garlic, and a pinch of kosher salt in a small bowl.
  • Put it all together
  • Toss the carrots and spring onions with the herb sauce and the juice of the ½ lemon. Lay the carrots and spring onions out on a serving plate. Drape the anchovies over them. Scatter the croutons over and shower with the sumac. Finish with a squeeze of lemon juice.

This dish was a disappointment. The carrots were tough and the sauce was bland. I won't be making this recipe again.

This recipe is a bit time-consuming, but it's worth it! The carrots are so tender and flavorful, and the sauce is to die for. I highly recommend this recipe for a special occasion.

I'm a vegetarian, so I omitted the anchovies from this recipe. The dish was still delicious! The carrots were tender and flavorful, and the sauce was tangy and delicious. I will definitely be making this recipe again.

This recipe was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I think that's because I used too much chili powder. Next time I'll use less and see how it turns out.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover carrots. I had some carrots that were starting to go bad, so I decided to make this dish. It turned out great! The carrots were tender and flavorful, and the sauce was delicious.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my carrots turned out mushy. I think I cooked them for too long.

This dish was a bit too tangy for my taste, but I think that's because I used too much sumac. Next time I'll use less and see how it turns out.

I'm not a big fan of anchovies, but I decided to give this recipe a try anyway. I'm glad I did! The anchovies added a subtle salty flavor that really complemented the other ingredients. This dish is definitely a keeper.

This dish was a delightful surprise! The combination of young carrots, spring onions, sumac, and anchovies was unexpected but worked perfectly together. The carrots were sweet and tender, the spring onions added a bit of sharpness, the sumac gave it
