Roasted Rainbow Carrots

This roasted rainbow carrots recipe is a beautiful, delicious side dish! I top the tender, caramelized carrots with a zesty gremolata, tahini sauce, and pomegranates for festive flair. Vegan and gluten-free.

Ingredients
- 1 pound carrot with tops
- extra-virgin olive oil
- salt sea salt; freshly ground black pepper
- black pepper sea salt; freshly ground black pepper
- ½ recipe tahini sauce
- pomegranate arils for garnish
Carrot Top Gremolata
- ¼ cup Carrot tops chopped
- ¼ cup parsley chopped, fresh
- 1 garlic grated, small clove
- 1 teaspoon orange zest
- ½ teaspoon cumin seeds roughly ground in a mortar and pestle, toasted
- ¼ teaspoon salt sea salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Wash the carrots and their tops well and pat them dry. Slice the tops off the carrots and set them aside for the gremolata.
- Place the whole carrots on the baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Toss to coat and spread evenly on the baking sheet. Roast for 20 to 30 minutes, or until tender and browned around the edges.
- Meanwhile, make the gremolata: Chop the carrot tops and measure ¼ cup. Save the remaining carrot tops for another use, such as homemade vegetable broth.
- Place the ¼ cup chopped carrot tops in a medium bowl and add the parsley, garlic, orange zest, cumin seeds, and salt. Stir to combine.
- Toss the rainbow carrots with the gremolata while they’re still warm from the oven. Transfer to a serving platter, drizzle with the tahini sauce, and garnish with pomegranate arils. Season to taste and serve.
