Roasted carrot paste

Roasted carrots are terrific because the flavour is intensified and you can get the edges quite dark which gives a really complex, less sweet tasting end result that is like carrot on viagra. A roasted carrot paste has all this, and a softer, moist texture that goes really well with roasted or grilled meats.

Ingredients

  • carrots

Instructions

Simply toss peeled and chopped carrot with olive oil, some salt and pepper, and roast in a hot oven (220°C is good) until starting to colour. They may need tossing and turning. Allow at least 40 minutes for them to cook.

Mash the carrots up to a coarse paste, adding a bit more extra virgin olive oil to bring out the flavours as you see fit.
