Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Spicy Roasted Carrot Dip.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 425°F (220°C) and prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a small saucepan, pour in some olive oil and heat it over medium-high until it begins to shimmer, which should take about a minute.
Step 3
Once it’s ready, stir in the crushed red pepper and then take it off the heat, allowing the flavors to mingle while you get the other ingredients ready.
Step 4
In a large bowl, toss together the chopped carrots, onion, and whole garlic cloves with a sprinkle of salt, coriander, and turmeric.
Step 5
Drizzle the infused olive oil over this vibrant mix and give everything a good toss until the veggies are nicely coated in that flavorful oil.
Step 6
Spread the colorful vegetable mixture evenly on your prepared baking sheet.
Step 7
Pop it into the preheated oven and let it roast for about 30 minutes, remembering to give it a gentle toss halfway through.
Step 8
You’ll know it’s done when the vegetables are tender and beautifully caramelized.
Step 9
Once they’re out of the oven, let them cool for a few moments to lock in all that deliciousness.
Step 10
Next, transfer the roasted veggies to a food processor.
Step 11
Add in some tahini, a drizzle of honey, and a pinch more salt if you like.
Step 12
Blend everything together until it transforms into a smooth and creamy dip that’s simply irresistible.
Step 13
Spoon your delightful dip into a serving bowl, and for a finishing touch, strain the infused olive oil into a small dish, leaving the crushed red pepper behind.
Step 14
Drizzle this fragrant oil over your dip and sprinkle with fresh parsley for a pop of color and flavor.
Step 15
Now, gather your friends and family, and enjoy this delicious creation together!.
