Slow-roasted carrots with garam masala yoghurt recipe

Step-by-step

  1. Preheat the oven to 220°C (428°F)/fan 200°C (392°F).
  2. Mix the garam masala with the garlic, half the yoghurt and half the oil in a large bowl and season with salt and pepper. Add the carrots and sliced onion and mix well to coat.
  3. Lay the coated carrots and onion on a roasting tray in a single layer and roast for about 25 minutes, or until tender and golden in places.
  4. Meanwhile, add the turmeric to the remaining oil and heat in a small pan over a moderate heat for 1 minute. Remove from the heat and put to one side.
  5. Mix the lemon juice and remaining yoghurt with half the chopped herbs, and season with salt and pepper to taste.
  6. Place the cooked carrots (along with any caramelized bits from the pan) on a big plate.
  7. Dress with the yoghurt and turmeric oil and top with the rest of the chopped herbs.
