(1) The carrots may require a longer cooking time if you're using less tender winter carrots with a hard core. Use young carrots, if possible.
(2) Dukkah is a blend of spices, seeds and nuts with complex flavors, originally from the Middle East. Flavorful without being aggressive, sweet and savory, dukkah adds a very pleasant crunch to dishes.
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 225°C/450°F.
Step 2
In a bowl, mix together the olive oil, honey and harissa along with the salt and pepper to taste. Save a couple tablespoons to glaze the rest with the carrots towards the end (Step 5).
Step 3
Pour mixture over carrots on a rimmed baking sheet and cover with foil.
Step 4
Bake for 15 minutes.
Step 5
After 15 minutes, remove the foil and pour the rest of the glaze (Step 2) and add the butter over the top.
Roast the carrots another 5 minutes or until golden.
Sprinkle with dukkah and more salt and pepper to taste to finish.
Villa Jerada has kindly opened the doors of its kitchen to let us discover exotic flavors drawn from the spice repertoires of the Middle East and North Africa. In its shop, we found buckwheat honey, extra-virgin olive oil, dukkah and many other delights.
