Carrots are elevated when served with this labneh-based dip sprinkled with a pinch of sumac. The colours are enhanced with green dill fronds and bright red pomegranate seeds. The secret to carrots looking their best? Leave some of their stems on!
2. Cream of Carrot Soup with Tahini and Broccoli
This cream of carrot soup was given a serious flavour boost by adding a pinch of cumin for a Middle-Eastern-inspired touch. As a topping, creamy tahini, crunchy chopped broccoli and sesame seeds add depth and texture.

3. Spiced Lamb Shanks with Carrot Juice
In this recipe, carrot juice flavours the lamb shank in an exceptional way: The lamb slowly simmers in the carrot broth—with cinnamon and curry powder—until it becomes very tender. It’s served with carrot and olive couscous and carrots roasted with carrot juice for a very carroty meal!

For lunch or brunch, we love this salty muffin that’s halfway between a cake and an omelette. To grated carrot we add feta cheese, Gouda cheese and a jalapeño pepper for a light touch of spice.
