  • 200g feta cheese

    crumbled
  • 1 Tbsp smoked paprika

    for your carrots
  • 1 big Tbsp honey

    (we recommend harissa paste, but we also used Asian style flakes chili in oil)
Salsa verde

Method

1

Preheat your oven @190 C on fan bake.

2

On a baking tray place your carrots and coat with olive oil, spices, salt and pepper. Shake until well coated and roast for 25 mins.

3

In the meantime, mix up the Greek yoghurt and feta. Place on your plating dish as a thick layer and set aside.

4

Once the carrots are almost done take them out of the oven, add your chickpeas to the tray, ass a splash of olive oil, S&P and shake! Return the tray to the oven for another 10-15 min.

5

For the salsa verde: chop your herbs and add olive oil, lemon juice, salt & pepper. Give it a good mix and put aside.

6

When your carrots are ready, take out of the oven and add honey & chilli paste. Shake, shake, shake until everything is sticky!

7

Place your carrots and chickpeas on the yoghurt/feta bed, top up with a splash of lemon juice (and zest if you would like), a splash of olive oil and your salsa verde. Taste and see if the dish needs a bit more salt & pepper.
