Honey-Roasted Carrots with Whipped Feta

Cooking instructions

• 1.

  Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).

• 2.

  Peel the carrots and cut them into pieces about 5 cm long.

  
• 3.

  Place the carrots in a baking dish or on a parchment-lined sheet pan. Add the olive oil, honey, salt, and pepper, and toss well to coat. Spread in a single layer so they roast evenly rather than steam.

  
• 4.

  Roast for 35–40 minutes, until tender with lightly caramelized edges, turning once halfway for even browning.

  
• 5.

  For the sauce, use a blender for the smoothest texture: add the feta and yogurt, then a little lemon zest and the juice of half a lemon. Blend until perfectly smooth. Alternatively, combine everything in a bowl and mash with a fork until soft and creamy. Taste and add a pinch of salt if needed.

  
• 6.

  To serve, spoon the whipped feta onto a plate and swirl it into a circle.

  
• 7.

  Top with the roasted carrots and, if you like, finish with a light drizzle of honey.
