Carrots with Charmoula (Zaalook Style)

The perfect side dish to chicken, fish, or any other main dish you make. This was a hit at my last dinner party even though there were numerous side dishes on the table. Not only this carrot dish is full of flavor, but also colorful and easily prepared. It can be served warm or cold.



What You Need:

5 medium size carrots
3 garlic cloves
1/4 cup of chopped parsley
3 Tbsp of olive oil
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/2 tsp cumin
1 tsp paprika

What To Do:

  1. Peel the carrots and cut them in little cubes.
  2. In boiling water, add the carrots and the 3 garlic cloves. Let them cook for 15-20 minutes.
  3. Drain the carrots and garlic from the water.
  4. Heat oil in a pan, add the carrots with the garlic, the parsley and the spices.
  5. Mash the carrots while they are cooking, for about 15 min.
  6. Sprinkle with parsley and serve warm or cold.
Enjoy!
