ROASTED CARROT ROMESCO



Roasted Carrot Romesco image

Romesco is one of Spain's classic sauces, typically made with bread and charred vegetables. I like to lighten it up by taking the bread out, adding more almonds, and swapping red peppers for carrots to give it an earthy dynamic. It's the perfect sauce to go along with just about anything, from grilled vegetables to fish.

Categories     condiment

Time 45m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 carrots
1 medium yellow onion
2 tomatoes
1 head garlic
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil, divided
1/4 cup sliced almonds
1/4 cup toasted whole almonds
Sea salt, to taste
1 teaspoon pimenton (smoked paprika)
2 tablespoons sherry vinegar

Steps:

  • Roast the vegetables: Heat oven to 550 degrees F, or as high as your oven will go. Leaving the skin on, cut the onion in half vertically and place in roasting pan, cut side down. Cut the carrots in half horizontally and add to pan. Slice tomatoes in half and add to pan, cut side down. Cut head of garlic in half horizontally, discard the woody outermost layer, and add to pan, cut side down. Drizzle ¼ cup olive oil over the vegetables and roast until soft and lightly charred, about 15 minutes.
  • Make the romesco: When the vegetables are roasted and cooled, remove the onion, tomato, and garlic skins and discard; add all the vegetables to the food processor. Deglaze the roasting pan by adding enough water to cover the bottom, heating to a low simmer, and scraping to release the brown bits (also known as "fond"). Meanwhile, pulse the vegetables in the food processor to a chunky mash. Add the sliced almonds, toasted almonds, salt, pimenton, vinegar, and 3 tablespoons of olive oil; pulse to combine.
  • Finish the romesco: Add half of the deglazed pan juices to the food processor and continue to pulse to combine; then season to taste with more salt. With the motor running, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil to finish. Serve with grilled vegetables, as a dip, or as a vinaigrette by mixing a few tablespoons of romesco with one part vinegar and two parts oil.

ROASTED CARROTS



Roasted Carrots image

This dish is inspired by a roasted carrot antipasto I recently sampled at Oliveto Cafe in Oakland, Calif. The roasted carrots were tossed with lots of parsley and thyme, and I loved the way those bitter herbs offset the sweetness of the carrots.

Categories     easy, side dish

Time 1h

Yield Serves six

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 pounds carrots, peeled quartered or cut into sixths lengthwise depending on the size, then into 2-inch lengths
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
Salt
freshly ground pepper
1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves, chopped
1/2 teaspoon oregano
3 tablespoons finely chopped flat-leaf parsley

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Oil a sheet pan or a baking dish large enough to fit all of the carrots in a single layer. Place the carrots in a large bowl, and toss with the olive oil, salt, pepper, thyme and oregano.
  • Spread in an even layer in the prepared pan or baking dish. Cover with foil, and place in the oven for 30 minutes. Uncover, and if the carrots are not yet tender, turn the heat down to 375 degrees and return to the oven for 10 to 15 more minutes until tender. Add the parsley, stir gently, and taste and adjust salt and pepper. Serve hot, warm or at room temperature.
