Ingredients
Instructions
- StepPre-heat oven to 425°F (220°C).
- StepIn a large pot over high heat, bring generously salted water to a rolling boil. Add the carrots and cook for 3 to 4 minutes, just until slightly tender but still firm. Drain well and allow them to cool slightly until safe to handle.
- StepOnce cool enough, pat dry thoroughly with a clean kitchen towel to remove excess moisture. Slice the carrots lengthwise into thick strips.
- StepTransfer carrots to a bowl and toss with olive oil, salt, and pepper until evenly coated. Arrange in a single layer on the prepared sheet.
- StepRoast carrots for 20–25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until tender and caramelized with lightly crisp edges.
- StepMeanwhile, in a medium bowl or food processor, blend the ricotta and feta with 1 tablespoon milk until smooth and creamy. Add more milk as needed to create a soft, spreadable texture. Set aside.
- StepIn a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Continue cooking, swirling occasionally, until the butter foams, turns golden brown, and smells nutty, about 3–5 minutes. Remove from heat immediately.
- StepSpread the whipped cheese mixture onto a serving plate. Top with the roasted carrots and spoon the warm brown butter over top. Finish with fresh herbs and lemon zest, if using.
