preparation

  • 1

    Preheat the oven to 220°C (425°F) (200°C (400°F) fan-forced) . Wash the carrots and halve them lengthwise, depending on their size. Toss them in a bowl with olive oil, honey, salt, and pepper. Spread them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and roast for 25 minutes, until lightly caramelized and soft, but still slightly firm to the bite.

  • 2

    Blend feta with yogurt, olive oil, honey, and lemon juice in a blender on high speed until a smooth, airy cream forms. Season with pepper to taste and refrigerate until ready to use.
