• Preheat oven to 475.

• Arrange carrots in a single layer on a foil-lined baking sheet and lightly drizzle with olive oil, za'atar, paprika, salt and pepper. Roast these for 20-25 minutes, until fork tender.
• If using a hand/immersion blender, combine roasted carrots, beets, and stock in a large stock pot and blend until smooth. Add water (or more stock if you have it) to get the consistency you want.
• If using a regular blender, in batches add in roast carrots, beets and stock and run until consistency you want is reached.
• Taste and add any more salt, pepper, za'atar, paprika or garlic powder to your liking. Portion out in bowls and garnish with yogurt and za'atar.

Steps:

• Peel and cut the carrots into ½-inch rounds. On a rimmed baking sheet, toss the carrots with 2 tablespoons of the olive oil and sprinkle generously with salt. Set an oven rack 6 to 8 inches from the heat source and turn on the broiler. Broil the carrots until they brown and soften, turning them over with a spatula every 5 minutes or so; this should take 15-20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, bring the stock to a boil. Add the ginger and the sprig of thyme and simmer gently for 15 minutes.
• Dice the onion and place in a medium stockpot with the remaining olive oil. Cook the onion over medium heat, stirring frequently, until softened and lightly browned. Season. Add the garlic, and then the carrots.
• Remove the ginger and thyme from the stock, and add the stock to the pot with the onions and carrots. Bring to boil and simmer for 5 to 10 minutes, until the carrots are soft enough to purée.
• Use an immersion or standard blender to purée the mixture until smooth. If the soup seems too thick, add more stock or water and gently reheat. Add salt and pepper to taste. To serve, ladle into bowls and garnish with chopped fresh thyme.
