We often roast carrots and call it a day. But there's a reason this one keeps coming back into my rotation: it's built on a hot-cold, crisp-creamy contrast that your mouth actually notices before your brain catches up.
Sweet roasted carrots, straight from the oven. A crunchy chia-panko topping toasted until golden. And underneath it all, cold yogurt laced with preserved lemon and garlic.
The trick is speed β plate it while the carrots are still hot, because the second that panko touches the yogurt, it starts going soft. You've got a small window when crispy, warm, cool, and tangy all happen in the same bite. That's the window you're going for.
