Sesamecarrots Recipes

SESAME CARROTS

Steps:

• Peel and cut 4 medium carrots into long matchstick-size pieces. Heat 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil in a large skillet, preferably nonstick, over medium heat. Add carrots and cook, stirring occasionally, until just tender, 3-4 minutes. Season with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper.

CARROT SOUP

Steps:

• In a medium sized stock pot, over high heat, combine the chicken stock, carrots, garlic, dill weed, salt and butter. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for 30 minutes or until carrots are soft.
• In a blender, puree the soup, return to stock pot and simmer for an additional 30 to 45 minutes. Season with additional dill or garlic if needed.

SESAME CARROT SLICES

Steps:

• In a large skillet, cook and stir the carrots in butter over medium heat for 5 minutes. Stir in the brown sugar, mustard, salt, hot pepper sauce and pepper. Cook and stir 4 minutes longer or until carrots are crisp-tender and evenly coated. Sprinkle with parsley and sesame seeds.

HONEY GLAZED SESAME CARROTS

Steps:

• Peel carrots. Slice carrots into coins, cutting any very large pieces in half.
• In a large skillet over medium heat, add olive oil. When hot, add carrots, salt and pepper. Cook for 5 to 7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until carrots are lightly browned and almost cooked through.
• Add honey and toasted sesame seeds to pan. Stir to coat carrots. Cook for an additional 2 minutes, or until sauce thickens slightly and carrots can be easily pierced through with a fork. Remove from heat and serve.

SESAME CARROTS

Steps:

• Cut the carrots in 3 pieces, then each piece in half.
• I would cut the chunky end into 4 if it was very big.
• Place in a baking tray and roll in the 2 tablespoons of oil.
• Cover and bake for 40 minutes in a moderate oven.
• Remove the cover and sprinkle over the sesame oil and season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Return uncovered to the oven for 10 minutes.
• Serve sprinkled with the toasted sesame seeds.

HONEY-ROASTED CARROTS WITH SESAME SEEDS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with foil and put in the oven to heat.
• Spread the carrots in a single layer on the hot baking sheet. Combine the olive oil and 1 tablespoon of honey in small bowl and pour over the carrots. Sprinkle with the salt and pepper. Roast the carrots start until they start to blister, 10 minutes.
• Mix together the remaining 1 tablespoon honey and the soy sauce. Drizzle the mixture over the hot carrots and toss to coat. Sprinkle with the sesame seeds and chopped parsley and serve.

STICKY SESAME-GLAZED CARROTS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Toss the carrots in a baking tray with the oil. Roast for 40 mins, stirring in the honey halfway through cooking, and sprinkling over the seeds for the final 10 mins.

INDIAN SPICED SESAME CARROTS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425°F. In a small bowl, combine all the spices and whisk together well.
• Line a sheet pan with parchment or aluminum foil. Place the carrots in the pan and toss with Pure Avocado Oil to coat. Pour the spices over and toss the carrots well until fully coated with both oil and spices. Arrange the carrots in rows and avoid letting them touch (this will promote browning).
• Cook for 30-45 minutes, tossing midway through, or until slightly golden. Drizzle with Roasted Sesame Oil while warm and serve immediately.

SESAME CARROTS

Steps:

• Special equipment: a mortar and pestle or spice grinder
• For the gomasio: In a dry saute pan set over medium heat, cook the sesame seeds until toasted a light brown. Remove to a mortar and pestle or spice grinder. Add the sea salt and crush until about half the seeds are crushed.
• For the carrots: Using a vegetable peeler, shaved the carrots into ribbons. In a large bowl, mix the carrot ribbons with the sesame oil, black sesame seeds, coriander and 1 tablespoon of the gomasio.
• For the sauce: In a small bowl, combine the yogurt, mayonnaise, sriracha and curry powder. Mix well then smear on a plate. Top with the carrot ribbons and garnish with more gomasio.
