ROASTED CARROTS WITH TURMERIC AND CUMIN



Roasted Carrots With Turmeric and Cumin image

These are based on Suzanne Goin's turmeric-spiced root vegetables from her wonderful new book "The A.O.C. Cookbook." I use her technique for roasting the carrots, and use the same spices she uses, but I make the dish with a little less olive oil and butter. Suzanne serves her mix of carrots, turnips, parsnips and rutabagas with Greek yogurt seasoned with makrut lime juice and zest, and mint chutney. They are also delicious on their own.

Time 40m

Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

10 medium carrots, peeled
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
1/2 teaspoon cumin seeds, lightly toasted
1/2 teaspoon coriander seeds, lightly toasted
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
1/2 teaspoon turmeric
1/2 teaspoon Aleppo pepper or mild chili powder
2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Cut the carrots in half lengthwise and crosswise. If the carrots are fat at one end, cut the fat half in half again lengthwise, so that the pieces are more or less equal in thickness. Place in a large bowl and toss with the olive oil, salt and pepper, and thyme leaves.
  • Heat a heavy baking sheet in the oven for 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from the oven and place the carrots on it in one layer. Roast for 20 to 25 minutes, stirring the carrots every 10 minutes. They should be slightly caramelized and tender.
  • While the carrots are in the oven place the cumin and coriander seeds in a mortar and pestle and grind. Add the soft butter, turmeric and Aleppo pepper or chili powder and stir with the pestle until well amalgamated. Transfer to a large pan.
  • Remove the carrots from the oven when done and add to the pan with the spice butter and the mint. Toss together, taste and adjust salt and pepper. Serve from the pan or transfer to a platter.

One-pan carrot & cumin soup image

Warm up with a comforting bowl of carrot soup. We've used double cream for a velvety texture, and to carry the flavours of warming cumin and star anise.

Provided by Good Food team

Categories     Lunch, Starter

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 9

25g butter
2 tbsp cumin seeds, plus extra to serve
1 onion, finely chopped
1 leek, green part trimmed away, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, chopped
1 star anise
600g carrots, chopped
1 litre vegetable stock
100ml double cream

Steps:

  • Heat the butter in a deep saucepan over a medium heat until just starting to sizzle, then fry the cumin seeds until toasted and crackling.
  • Add the onion, leek, garlic, star anise, carrots and a pinch of salt. Stir to coat. Cover, reduce the heat to low and cook gently for 15-20 mins, stirring occasionally until the vegetables have softened in their own steam.
  • Pour over the stock and bring the mixture to a simmer, then continue to cook for 10 mins until the carrots are tender. Spoon 2 tbsp of the cream into a small dish and set aside, then pour the rest into the pan and bring back to the boil. Remove the star anise and use a hand blender to blitz the mixture until smooth and silky. Or, tip into a standard blender in batches and blitz before returning to the pan. For a really smooth soup, push through a sieve into a saucepan. At this stage, the soup can be cooled completely and chilled for up to three days or frozen for six months. Defrost fully before reheating. Reheat until piping hot over a low heat, then pour into bowls, drizzle with the reserved cream and scatter the extra cumin seeds on top. Serve with these cheese, cumin & onion seed cornbread muffins, if you like.

Categories     Soup/Stew     Blender     Bake     Vegetarian     Quick & Easy     Pecan     Spice     Carrot     Winter     Simmer     Gourmet

Yield Makes 2 3/4 cups, serving 2

Number Of Ingredients 10

For soup
1 medium onion, chopped (about 3/4 cup)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 to 3 large carrots, sliced thin (about 1 3/4 cups)
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon salt or to taste
2 cups water
For pecans
2 tablespoons pecans, chopped coarse
1 teaspoon unsalted butter

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Make soup:
  • In a saucepan cook onion in butter over moderate heat, stirring, until softened. Add carrots, cumin, and salt and cook, stirring, 1 minute. Add water and simmer mixture, covered, 25 minutes, or until carrots are very tender.

  • On a baking sheet toast pecans in middle of oven 8 minutes, or until fragrant and 1 shade darker. Toss pecans with butter a nd salt to taste.
  • In a blender purée soup until smooth.
  • Divide soup between 2 soup bowls and top with pecans.

Tips:

  • Choose the right carrots: Look for carrots that are firm and brightly colored. Avoid carrots that are limp or have brown spots.
  • Roast the carrots properly: Roasting the carrots brings out their natural sweetness and flavor. Make sure to roast them until they are tender but still have a slight bite to them.
  • Use a good quality vegetable broth: The vegetable broth is the base of the soup, so it's important to use a good quality one. Look for a broth that is low in sodium and has a rich flavor.
  • Don't overcook the soup: The soup should be simmered until the carrots are tender, but not mushy. Overcooking the soup will make it bland and watery.
  • Garnish the soup with fresh herbs: Fresh herbs add a pop of color and flavor to the soup. Some good options include parsley, cilantro, and thyme.
