Turmeric & Za’Atar Roasted Carrots
Instructions
1
|
Preheat oven to 400* F. Trim the very tops off of the carrots. Peel, if desired. If you don’t feel like peeling your carrots, scrub them well. Dry thoroughly, and spread evenly on a greased baking sheet.

|
In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, za’atar, turmeric, cumin, cinnamon, and garlic. Drizzle over the carrots. Season generously with salt and pepper. Toss to coat evenly.

Bake the carrots, checking for doneness at 30 minutes. They should be tender and starting to brown a bit along the edges. When cooked through, remove from oven. Garnish with feta, parsley, pumpkin seeds, and/or pistachios.

Tips & Tricks (5)
- Uniform Carrot Sizing 🥕Cut carrots into evenly-sized pieces (roughly ¼-inch thickness) to ensure they roast at the same rate and achieve consistent tenderness in under 10 minutes.
- Bloom Your Spices 🌟Toast the turmeric and za'atar briefly in a hot pan with a touch of oil before tossing with carrots to unlock their essential oils and deepen their complex flavors.
- High Heat for Caramelization 🔥Roast at 425°F or higher on a preheated sheet pan to develop golden, caramelized edges that contrast beautifully with the tender interior.
- Don't Crowd the Pan 📦Arrange carrots in a single layer with space between pieces to allow steam to escape and promote even browning rather than steaming.
- Double the Recipe Strategy 📈When doubling, use two sheet pans instead of crowding one, and rotate them halfway through roasting for consistent color and texture across all batches.
