Roasted Carrot & Citrus Vinaigrette
- 1 Tbsp Chili Flakes
- 2 Tbsp Cumin
- 2 Tbsp Thyme
- 6 Tbsp Minced Garlic
- 1/3 cup Olive Oil
- 2 Tbsp Lemon Juice
- 2 Tbsp Orange Juice
- 2 Tbsp Red Wine Vinegar
- 1 tsp Salt
- 6 lb Peeled, trimmed whole carrots
- 6 each Lemons, halved
- 6 each Oranges, halved
- 3 cup Grapeseed oil
- ½ tsp Salt
- 1 drop Orange oil
- 1 drop Lemon oil
- 1 cup Orange juice
- 1/2 cup Lemon juice
- 1/2 cup simple syrup
- 8 cup Spring Mixed Greens
- 1 cup Sour Cream
- 1 cup Sunflower Seeds
Directions: Combine all spices in ingredient step 1, for best results prepare the day before to allow all flavours to blend and fully develop. Rub spice mixture onto peeled carrots and halved oranges and lemons and bake in oven at 350 for approximately 25 minutes. Remove the citrus (set aside to cool) and continue to roast carrots until fork tender, then cool.
Place Citrus fruit in a strainer over a bowl, and press to extract as much juice as possible, combine with any pan drippings from the carrots and step 3 ingredients, for best results use the juices to wash over the roasted citrus to pull off as much of the spice mix as possible before emulsifying with hand blender.
Cut the cooled carrots into bite sized portions place on top of mixed greens, top with desired amount of vinaigrette and garnish with sour cream and sunflower seeds.
