Roasted Tzimmes

With the final addition of za’atar, a Middle Eastern spice mixture, this sweet carrot dish becomes another perfect combination of East meets West—a great mix of Ashkenazi tradition with Middle Eastern flavors.

Ingredients

Servings
  • 8 figs cut into eighths, dried
  • 1/4 cup orange juice from 1 medium orange, fresh
  • 3/4 pound carrot peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes or 1 1/2-inch long sticks, about 4
  • 3/4 pound sweet potatoes cut into 1-inch cubes or 1 1/2-inch-long sticks, 1 medium
  • 1/2 pound parsnip peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes or 1 1/2-inch long sticks
  • 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon molasses (you can substitute maple syrup)
  • 2 teaspoons za'atar spice blend
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • black pepper freshly ground

Instructions

  1. Toss the figs and orange juice in a large bowl and let soak for at least 20 minutes and up to 1 hour.
  2. Preheat the oven to 425°F (218°C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
  3. Drain the figs, reserving the orange juice. Add the carrots, sweet potatoes, and parsnips to the figs along with the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, molasses, za’atar, salt, and pepper to taste and toss to coat.
  4. Spread the mixture on the prepared baking sheet and roast, tossing occasionally, until the vegetables begin to caramelize, 25 to 40 minutes. Sprinkle 3 tablespoons of the reserved orange juice over the vegetables and toss again. Taste and, if desired, season with more salt to taste.
