Roast Carrots Aisling Larkin TV Chef
This recipe celebrates local and seasonal produce. Taking a little time to source rainbow-coloured carrots or heirloom carrots makes this plant-based dish a winner. This dish is packed full of flavour, wholesome and very trendy and the dukkah is a subtle blend of middle eastern inspired nuts, seeds and spices. Serving the carrots with the flatbreads and herby whipped cream cheese is delightful.
