Ingredients
  • 3 lbs uncooked carrots, peeled, divided (regular or rainbow variety)
  • 1 cup vegetable broth, high-quality store-bought (or water)
  • 1½ tsp kosher salt
  • 1 cup plain low-fat Greek yogurt, 2%, divided
  • 4 garlic cloves, medium, minced
  • 1 tbsp minced ginger
  • 1 tbsp curry powder
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • ¼ tsp crushed red pepper flakes
  • 1 pinch ground cloves
  • 2 tsp orange zest, finely grated
  • 1 tbsp orange juice
  • ¼ cup cilantro, and/or mint leaves coarsely chopped


Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Roughly chop ½ lb carrots; place in a medium pot with broth and 1/2 tsp salt. Bring to a boil over high heat; reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer until carrots are very tender, about 20 minutes. Transfer mixture to a food processor or blender; puree until smooth. Season to taste with salt (optional); set aside.
  3. Meanwhile, halve remaining carrots lengthwise; set aside. Place 1/2 c yogurt in a large bowl with 1 tsp salt, garlic, ginger, curry powder, black pepper, red pepper flakes, and cloves; whisk well to combine. Add reserved raw carrots to bowl; stir well to coat with yogurt mixture.
  4. Place yogurt-coated carrots on prepared pan in a single layer; roast carrots, stirring halfway through cooking, until lightly browned and tender when pierced with a paring knife, about 25-30 minutes.
  5. Just before serving, whisk orange zest and juice into the remaining 1/2 c yogurt; season to taste with salt (optional).
  6. To serve, place carrot puree on a large serving platter; use a spoon to smear it evenly around the center of the platter. Top with roasted carrots; dollop yogurt mixture over top. Sprinkle with cilantro and/or mint; serve immediately.
  7. Serving Size: 1/6 of roasted Tandoori Carrots, 4 tbsp carrot puree, 4 tsp orange yogurt. Enjoy!
