Young Carrots With Spring Onions Sumac And Anchovies Food

YOUNG CARROTS WITH SPRING ONIONS, SUMAC, AND ANCHOVIES

Steps:

• Make the covered-pot carrots and spring onions
• Preheat the oven to 300°F, with a rack in the middle. Toss the carrots and onions with 1 teaspoon kosher salt and 1 teaspoon olive oil. Lay them out in a single layer in a Dutch oven or other heavy pot with a lid. Cover the pot with foil and seal by placing the lid on top of the foil. Transfer the pot to the oven and cook the vegetables, first checking after 30 minutes for doneness by poking one with a metal skewer. When the vegetables are done, the skewer will slide in and out easily; as soon as they are tender, remove them to a plate to cool. Cut the cooled carrots lengthwise in half.
• Make the herb sauce
• Mix together the remaining two teaspoons of oil, parsley, mint, garlic, and a pinch of kosher salt in a small bowl.
• Put it all together
• Toss the carrots and spring onions with the herb sauce and the juice of the ½ lemon. Lay the carrots and spring onions out on a serving plate. Drape the anchovies over them. Scatter the croutons over and shower with the sumac. Finish with a squeeze of lemon juice.

Steps:

• Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium-high. Add onions, cut-side down; cook until golden brown, about 4 minutes. Transfer to a plate. Add wine and cook, stirring and scraping up browned bits, until liquid is reduced to about 2 tablespoons, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Add remaining 2 tablespoons butter, 1/2 cup water, carrots, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook, covered, until carrots are just tender, about 12 minutes. Uncover; return onions to pan and simmer until liquid has evaporated and carrots are glazed and tender, 5 to 6 minutes more.
• Add thyme; season with salt and pepper. Transfer to a platter; serve, garnished with parsley.
