TAHINI-GLAZED CARROTS



Tahini-Glazed Carrots image

A little sweet from date syrup, creamy from tahini and very tangy from plenty of lemon juice, this roasted carrot dish - adapted from Adeena Sussman's cookbook "Sababa" - has charisma to spare. It's also extremely easy to make. While the carrots roast with olive oil and cumin, all you do is whisk together a simple glaze from pantry ingredients. If you don't have the date syrup on hand, maple syrup works just as well, making the dish slightly sweeter but no less compelling.

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/2 pounds slender carrots (or thick carrots, halved lengthwise), peeled
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1/4 cup tahini
3 to 4 tablespoons fresh lemon juice, to taste
3 tablespoons silan (date syrup), or maple syrup
1/4 teaspoon ground cayenne
1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt, plus more to taste

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 425 degrees. Place carrots on a large rimmed baking sheet and toss with the oil, salt and cumin. Roast carrots for 15 minutes, then turn them and continue roasting until they are golden at the edges and tender, 12 to 15 minutes longer.
  • While the carrots are roasting, make the tahini glaze: In a medium bowl, whisk together the oil, tahini, 3 tablespoons lemon juice, silan, cayenne, salt and 1 tablespoon water until smooth. Whisk in 1 to 2 more tablespoons water until you have a thick but pourable sauce. Taste and add more salt or lemon juice, or both, if you like.
  • Transfer the carrots to a platter and drizzle with the tahini glaze, tossing the carrots to coat.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, firm carrots for the best flavor and texture.
  • Cut the carrots into uniform-sized pieces so that they cook evenly.
  • Toss the carrots in a little olive oil before air frying to help them crisp up.
  • Season the carrots with salt, pepper, and any other desired spices before cooking.
  • Air fry the carrots at a high temperature (400 degrees Fahrenheit or higher) for a shorter amount of time to get crispy, tender carrots.
  • Make sure to shake the air fryer basket halfway through cooking to ensure even cooking.
  • Serve the air-fried carrots immediately with the tahini-lemon sauce for the best flavor and texture.

Conclusion:

Air-fried carrots with tahini-lemon sauce are a delicious and healthy side dish that can be enjoyed as part of a variety of meals. The carrots are crispy and tender, and the tahini-lemon sauce adds a flavorful and creamy touch. This dish is also easy to make, taking only about 30 minutes from start to finish.
