- Cut the shallots into halves in a chopping board, remove the external peel and cut the root, just the brown part so once cooked it will remain in that beautiful shape. Place the shallots in an oven tray covered with some greaseproof paper and set aside.
- Wash the carrots under cold running water to remove the dirt from them. Peel the carrots over the length and place them on the tray with the rest of the shallots, drizzle with some olive oil, add garlic, salt and pepper and mix until well combined. Place the tray in the oven and let it cook for 1 hour,check every now and then the vegetables so they don’t get burnt.

Serve
- Spread the yogurt in a serving plate. Place the carrots, the shallots on top of it, add some dill leaves and a drizzle of olive oil.
Notes
Can I replace the Greek yogurt with the whole yogurt?
Yes, of course.How long can I keep the leftover for?
The leftover can be kept for up to 2 days in the fridge in an airtight container.I don’t have the Zaàtar, what can I use instead?
Instead of the Zaàtar, you could easily use a combination in equals parts of dry thyme, oregano, marjoram, and toasted sesame seeds. If you have time to make your own Zaàtar is super simple, place equal parts of dry thyme, oregano, marjoram, toasted sesame seeds, and the sumac in a small jar and that’s it, I told you it was super easy.Roasted Carrots Shallots with Zaàtar Yogurt Sauce
